Scientist captures rare bird on Solomon Islands. Then kills it so he can bring it back to his museum and study it.

John Audobon killed and stuffed all the birds he drew/painted. He may have killed some of the rarest birds and he is heralded as a great conservationist.
Must have been a liberal.
idk about that, but he was an illegal immigrant.
He was wrong to do that
This reminded me of the rare bird not seen in the United Kingdom in 22 years being killed by a wind generator. All these people oohing and aahing over this rare sighting then bam! It got smacked by the windmill and killed. Not a word, of course, from the green weinies about the dangers to wildlife, they keep shouting for more green energy like windmills.

That almost sounds like a Monty Python skit!
This is criminal. Unless these areas common as chickens, it shouldnot have been killed. Just anoth err r asshole destroying creation for his own advancement.
...
And yet we have to trust scientists saving the Earth from weather changes...
Not surprised... scientists also NEED millions of babies' parts to cure all the diseases of the world. ... someday...
Ehhh, the story says it's not really rare, just little-known to Western science. Says the natives eat 'em for dinner.
Ehh.... I dunno. That beak looks like it would be kinda chewy.
This is sad, & that was a beautiful animal.
Maybe this is how we need to "study" democrats".....
That sounds just about right for the dip shit left Find something rare, want to study it. However, they are not about to be inconvenienced to study it in its natural habitat. So what did this brilliant one do. Killed it. That way they can sit back in a soft chair, sip the over priced coffee and tell all his dip shit friends what a magnificent specimen they have found.
Geez what a true DUMB ASS.
Of course, anything done in the name of science is OK, especially if he's going to use this to help prove Globull Warming. Obama will likely nominate him for the Nobel Peace Prize.
What do you bet he's one of those weenies who goes around warning about Global Warming causing species to become extinct?
I wouldn't give you 25 cents for most of the "scientists" we have nowadays.

Now we know why PP values "intact craniums" so.much
