tflash Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 If the Danish will not speed up the process of upgrading their reindeers with proper IFF, they will run into trouble with environmentalists and animal rights activists, that's for sure! :=) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfa Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Something fishy... Me thinks someone - probably American - came up with this story ;) For a start reindeers are not exactly normal household animals in this country...no more than camels anyway. Secondly, the name of the guy isnt a Danish one - which of course doesnt prove anything....except that it strikes me as being what one someone thinks sounds Danish ;) Cheers, - JJ.

Guest IguanaKing Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Sounds about right to me, since I live in America. I couldn't believe the number of farmers that were complaining about our new Denver International Airport, and how it was stressing their animals so much that they refused to eat. What a load of BS!!! They didn't seem to realize that some of us already knew ANG F-16s, and A-7s prior to that, had been operating in those areas for decades. I think the activists (the people the farmers are trying to appeal to) actually don't give the animals enough credit, just about every species out there is far more adaptable than they seem to realize. Hell...during the summer, I take one of my iguanas out on the flightline with me every day, and reptiles are one of the easiest to freak out. She was a little frightened at first, but now she loves being out there...noise, heat, wind and all. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilotasso Posted October 15, 2005 Author Share Posted October 15, 2005 Not insane... not quite. you have to look the things from the native cultural point of view. I have a friend in an university exchange program in dennmark. Appart from the women who all look alike the next thing he noticed the most are how people are alot more honest than down here (compared to most countries) If theres the law of conpensation farmers on the part of AF its because they have the living standards to afford it and because apparently no 1 is taking advantage of that to falsely make claims. Another example of this is, in Japan in all "bullet" train stations theres an emergency red button wich stops ALL trains of that type in the country. They never had a joker playing pranks with it to this day.

Guest IguanaKing Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Aside from cultural differences and who will or won't make a frivolous claim, I am looking at this from an animal behavior stand-point and...well...I don't buy it. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest IguanaKing Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 True. But you have to remember, the reindeer is a prey animal who is hunted by small packs of wolves, usually. If a brief moment of terror caused them all to drop dead on the spot...well...the current human interference program would be to alleviate the obese wolf problem. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
