Say No to Crow Hunting

6,000 crows were shot down recently in Klang following a crow shooting operation held by the Malaysian Independent Animal Rescue (MIAR) this week.

Many netizens have cried foul and expressed their grievances towards the unsightly and cold-hearted operation. A netizen commented that the crows don’t deserve such treatment, while another netizen suggested that it is more appropriate to educate the community first before killing innocent birds.
