Must Guard Master

Sadly, Australia’s surrender to the Animal Uprising™ is complete. They are now deploying super special snipers to guard their penguin masters.

Australia has posted snipers to protect endangered penguins in its biggest city, Sydney, after a spate of attacks, officials said on Tuesday.

The National Parks and Wildlife Service deployed its own marksmen as well as infrared cameras and traps after nine penguins were mauled to death by dogs or foxes in bushland to the city’s north.

Parks officials have carried out autopsies on the dead penguins and are also using DNA testing to try to track their killers.

“We’ve been working really hard to try to protect the endangered little penguins since we’ve had nine killed in the last couple of weeks,” a spokeswoman told AFP.

Protection or obedience? We report, you decide. We here at Blue Crab Boulevard suspect the latter, of course. The little guys in the tuxes are calling the shots – literally.

    It has been so long since you exposed any Animal Uprising intelligence that some of us — cough, cough — thought you had been bought off or intimidated.
    After all, what is more important: the war on terror or the sneering infiltration of cute little puppies and kitties?
