Buffalo buffalo buffalo Baltimore buffalo

This account of bison escaping in Baltimore is, mostly, just like the recent news about exploding toads in Germany -- silly animal news.

Note at the end, however, the reaction of their rancher:

Gerald Berg, who raised the bison on his cattle farm in Stevenson, started his day by jumping on an all-terrain vehicle and chasing the escaped animals. Mr. Berg has been raising bison for about eight years, he said, but no more.

By midday, as the last of the bison were being herded into the trailer, Mr. Berg had decided their fate.

"It's out of hand," he said. "They're going to the slaughterhouse, and they're going to be buffalo burgers."

I don't know how long people usually try to raise buffalo for, but something tells me it's a skill that might take a little longer than eight years to master. Sending them away to be turned into buffalo burgers seems a little impatients. Vegan Porn would eat this up (no pun intended, har har).
