This petition is to bring justice for the 49 animals, including endangered animals. We will make sure that we get more information from the Muskingum County Sheriff’s Department, and have the officers who ordered and shot and killed these animals charged with animal cruelty, and charged with killings of endangered animals.
Sheriff Matt Lutz said : He said that a veterinarian had tried to shoot a fleeing Bengal tiger with a tranquilizer dart, but that it either missed or only enraged the 300-pound animal. “It just went crazy,” Sheriff Lutz said. “We had to put it down.”
The sheriff described some of the animals that had been killed as “mature, very big, aggressive” with “high potential” for being dangerous to humans. “We could not have animals running loose in this county,” he said. “We could not have that.”
If you miss with a tranquilizer, what makes anyone think you are more accurate with any kind of lethal weapon, I'm sure the officers took more than one shot with their weapons, but they give up after one with a tranquilizer.......
We will call for a prosecuting D.A. in Washington or appropriate office to bring charges upon the law enforcement officials who carelessly killed the animals in Ohio.
