Saltuarius

.. and an interesting mix of dogmatic statements and moral equivocation. Take today’s Sunday with Macca, talking about the road kill on Australian roads. A guest was talking about deaths to people when motorists swerve to avoid dead animals left on the road. The guest pointed out that removing an animal you have killed from the road was the right thing to do. Macca agreed with him, rambled on about the number of dead animals he had seen recently and thought about removing form the road before he said, yes it is hard to know what is the right thing to do.

The right thing to do is to remove dead animals from the road and road side. Not just for the sake of avoiding other human deaths but other animal deaths as well. I can understand people not having the fortitude to kill an animal they have seriously wounded but removing it from the road side takes so little time. Large trucks, road trains, cannot back up and have trouble enough stopping so it is a public service for the rest of us to now and then remove their road kill as well as our own.
