I was going to write about the shenanigans the FDA is pulling with the cigarette labels today, and I will get to that. But I think that a bald eagle knocking out a small town's power with a dead fawn is distressing enough to take precedence. This was just a small town in Montana, but what if this was just a practice run? What if armies of eagles start bombarding our power grid with dead baby deer? What if they clog up our hydroelectric dams with cottony-wooly sheep carcasses? What if they start dropping cows into transfer stations to knock them out?
This may just have been an accident, but I fear it is the start of something much darker... We need to start evaluating the ability of a species to wipe out humanity before we protect them.
