Hunting & Fishing NZ hunter to die in anti-1080 protest

[vobla]

Chris Short, 50, from Taupo, New Zealand is an anti-1080 protester. He's got cancer and has only weeks to live.

He decided to make his last stand by climbing our iconic mountain and going to die there unless a major TV channel shows a locally made documentary on 1080.

Basically, the government dumps tons of 1080 on NZ bush to kill rats and possums. They also kill deer, pigs, birds, anything that is hungry enough to eat the bait.

Flick your message to this TV channel if you support the cause and ask them to screen the doco.

<span style="font-weight: bold">1080 (sodium monofluroacetate) = Death from above! </span>

DOC and the Animal Health Board need to stop dropping this shit and the dickheads that make it in the <span style="font-style: italic"><span style="font-weight: bold">USA</span></span> need to stop making it!!

I have seen the results! It fucks the hunting for three months after the drop.

1080 details from "Wiki"

The bullshit propaganda from the government department says it breaks down as soon as it contacts water and becomes harmless!

Shit heads will never stop making it as long as someone is there to buy it. Good luck in your quest.

Hate to hear this fellow is going to leave us and his family and friends. I agree with him on all points and hope he gets his last wishes!
