Death Sentence For Hippos

 Yes friends you read the headline correctly. Columbia the nation of, is planning on "culling" 80 hippos that were introduced to Columbia the nation of, by now dead and gone Pablo Escobar notorious Columbian drug lord and owner/operator of a private zoo that Escobar kept for his viewing pleasure. So after the demise of Escobar, the estimated four hippos that were first introduced has now grown into a population of an approximate 169 of the river horses and that number is estimated to reach 500 by the year 2030 which is not so far off and time certainly does fly when having fun. The hippos are having fun and are enjoying their new, Columbia the nation of, home. Anyway the braintrust that is supervising the hippos of Columbia the nation of, well, they've decided the best way to deal with the exploding hippo population is to butcher 80 of the hippos and there you go. Damn heartless I'd think and yes the Colombia braintrust tried their best to find a new home for 80 hippos and apparently there's no one on our planet that wants or needs 80 hippos that are most certainly hungry. (I would take them but the wife won't allow me to keep them in the living room). Hungry hungry hippos no doubt. Hippos can consume a sizable load of silage in an average day for hippos so that may well have been the deciding factor in refusing 80 of the 'cocaine hippos' which was a cutesy moniker given the hippos by the world media concerns. I didn't find the tag amusing or cute or none of that. The hippos are amazing creatures and it sure as hell isn't their fault they were captured as slaves and brought to Columbia the nation of, by animal slavers that are as heartless as is the braintrust of our presently at war world. Assholes the lot of them and that's to include Pablo Escobar Columbian drug lord and really nasty fucker that had a fondness for hippos. That fondness for hippos was the ONLY light of humanity Escobar was capable of showing. Finally the braintrust of Columbia the nation of, figures that a "cull" being necessary as those hippos find Columbia the nation of, quite comfortable and so it goes. Heartless no doubt. Spare the hippos and cull the trumpf regime followed by the Netanyahu regime followed by the Putin regime. Fuckers every last one. Now for Wednesday machine art and could someone please check on the camel. News about "culling" gives our camel a case of nervous outgassing. Camel flatulence is god awful.
