It’s sad that a formerly venerable newspaper like the Courier Journal would
resort to fictional sensationalism in a vain attempt to sell newspapers. By 10
or 15 years ago the Courier Journal had shrunk to a shadow of its former self.
Now it seems the’ve gone from merely irrelevant to detrimental.
As for this article spurring an onslaught of vulture murders, probably not. The
sort of farmer who would shoot a vulture wouldn’t be concerned about the
legality of it to begin with. I know a farmer who aims to shoot a Great Blue
Heron for “stealing” fish from her pond. She never takes off any time to go
fishing, so how much time is she going to spend gunning for a heron? (She calls
them cranes.)
