That's horrible. I imagine that child will be wanted for some other heinous crime when he gets older. People who are cruel to animals are generally cruel to humans as well.

I just finished reading an article about a Blue Iguana rescue facility that was broken into. The perpetrators killed at least 4 iguanas by either stepping on them, or knifing them. A bunch more were hurt or missing limbs. The police think it was teenagers on drugs or alcohol. It was on reptilegeeks as a bulletin.

People are terrible.
