Guest guest Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Why isn't there an IQ/ignorance test for humans that want to get guns? Lion killed in Kansas http://www.cjonline.com/stories/033008/out_263169994.shtml Officials reason these males are simply looking for love and take off to establish their own territory. .................................. There is no hunting season for mountain lions in Kansas and they may not be killed due to their mere presence. "People ask us how we can protect them when we say we don't have them," Peek said. "And I always say, 'Well first of all, we don't say we don't have them and secondly, there is a general regulation that protects all species for which there isn't an open season' so by default they're protected because there's not a specific regulation that protects mountain lions." However, landowners can destroy wildlife, including mountain lions found in or near buildings or when destroying property. Animals killed in this fashion cannot be possessed or used in any fashion. Pending completion in several weeks of the investigations, the landowner who allegedly killed the cat could be cited for killing and/or possession of the animal.
