Title: Knut is dead
Post by: Libertas on March 20, 2011, 01:49:05 PM: It got nauseating seeing the tards on morning TV and everywhere else in tardland fawning excessively over this critter. I like nature and cute as much as anybody, but their fawning made me gag!

Now he's dead. No reason known at this time. But, uhh, since his mother abandoned him and he had to be raised by a human...perhaps she knew something was wrong with the little bugger when she cut him loose?

Just sayin', maybe momma was smarter than everybody else!

PS-Did I commit a no-no by posting a dead animal here?! ::whatgives::

Sorry, I don't feel a thing for a polar bear. I don't believe they are endangered and even if they were, I trade them all for people and not blink.

Heheh. ::cool::

And wouldn't ya know it, in this modern day of citizen videojournalism, the actual moment of Knut's death was captured on video. Seriously.

Post by: Glock32 on March 26, 2011, 06:21:47 PM: When I heard about this my first thought was the same as Libertas', that the mother bear might have sensed something wrong with him when she chose to abandon him. Dogs can be trained to detect epileptic seizures and even cancerous tumors just from smell, so I wonder if momma bear had detected something like that.

He had a seizure and drowned when he fell in the water. Poor thing. RIP.
