Thanks @ChapoKrautHaus@hexbear.net for finding this and posting it in the news bulletin, I felt it needed its own post.

The original title of this article is way too passive voice for my taste but the article itself is pretty good.

        Should we get some alpacas or mules? No! We'll plant fucking chemical gas mines at random all over the countryside!

        We need a global coalition to invade america and dismantle their weapons of mass destruction.

        Fun fact, coyotes are important for controlling prairie dog populations; prairie dogs are also a cattle nuisance because they compete for forage. So then the ranchers want to poison all the prairie dogs. Just defaunate the whole countryside.
