Vermont had its first confirmed sighting of a Canada lynx in almost 40 years earlier this year in Derby. The Vt. Fish & Wildlife Dept. says a farmer protecting his farm animals from a predator mistakenly shot the lynx.

Yes, all the predators are important for the natural equilibrium, and those who are killing such important and beautiful amimals are making a HUGE mistake.

Was no mistake shooting it, for he said he was protecting his animals. He could shoot in the air and that will scare them off. People building and building and they have no where to go for food. What do they expect them to do? I think this man should have been fined real good for another beautiful endanger aniamal is gone. Thank you Cher C. noted

This stupid trigger-happy farmer should be fined harshly for killing an endangered animal! What is wrong with people, anyway? This makes me so mad!
