Some of us see to many Hollywood flicks and always tend to forget dis is Africa. Most of us are quick to lambast others and form nonsense online. Yes in an organised society animal welfare would have been contacted but is dis an organized society Are our zoos in an encouraging state talk more of having an animal welfare services. Someone kills a snake or any animal at dat an most people com online screaming blue murder but u have no problems buying a snake skin bag or fur coat. Maybe most of u have no idea hunting still goes on in the rural areas of even the developed countries. What would u people have d @OP do? Try and capture the animals alive and then what?? Abeg make una let pesin hear word. It's a wild cat and as such should remain in the wild.
The same wild ruthlessly encroached by unmanned human activities and settlements?

These cats are wild and are in danger to the public .Stop acting westernised ,the govt doesn't have any wild life or conservation personnel to curb the activities of the wild cat .
Same thing about the lion that was killed ,the only sane thing about the killing of the lion is that it was killed by people it should have killed


I should stop acting westernised...?! if I tell you Jesus is a Black Man... you'll be the first person to tell me to stop thinking like an African...

U sounded like someone who makes sense. But truth be told, these are not ur ordinary cats, I would panic when I see those and I know u will definitely panic too. Only a zoologist or someone who knows about wildlife would know if they are not harmful or not. If I find these in my backyard and I have the opportunity of killing them I will kill them before they hurt any member of my family. Better I kill an endegesred specie than let the cat hurt my little ones just because I want to preserve an endegesred specie.

There are snakes that are not harmful, but the first thing on my mind if I see a snake in my backyard is to kill it whether it is harmful or not. Am I a zoologist that I would differentiate a harmful snake from a non hsrmful one. Let me guess, so when I see a snake in my backyard I should first call the authorities to come and determine whether it is harmful or not, or whether it is endegeared specie or not. Oga leave science, let's face facts. This is real life.


You didn't make sense...

Danger to public?? What the guy you quoted said is absolutely logical and has nothing to do with being westernised.

We need the spirit of conservation where all animals we see aren't destined for meal tables, but instead respected and protected. The animals these beautiful cats prey on cause us more harm than the civets. Civets prey on snakes, rats ( that cause Lassa fever) and even scorpion.
Also, with our dwindling oil revenue, animal tourism is worth exploring and at the rate we killing animals, there will be none left in our wild forests.
Civets weigh from 7-20kg, less than a pit bull dog, are solitary and very shy. Where then is the threat to humans?
I'm 10000 times more likely to be killed by my fellow Nigerian than a civet cat. If humans are more of a threat to me, why can't I kill them based on your analogy?

Nigerians and destruction of life. The killer is a haramite and he is a problem to ecosystem as well as the continuity of life on earth. I pray that God will not reward you according to your deeds. Having succeeded in killing them, for you are honourable, device a means to play their roles in the ecosystem.

Kopi Luwak is also known as caphe cut chon (fox-dung coffee) in Vietnam and kape alamid in the Philippines. It is coffee that is prepared using coffee cherries that have been eaten and partially digested by the Asian palm civet, then harvested from its fecal matter.[4][5] The civets digest the flesh of the coffee cherries but pass the beans inside, leaving their stomach enzymes to go to work on the beans, which adds to the coffee's prized aroma and flavor.[4] 0.5 kg (1 lb) can cost up to $600 in some parts of the world and about $100 a cup in others.[6] A 2012 investigation by The Guardian newspaper found Indonesian civets held separately in cramped cages. The animals were force-fed a debilitating diet of coffee cherries in conditions described by the Traffic charity as "awful" and "horrific".[7] There is a campaign under way to encourage "ethical civet coffee".[8] Evidence suggests that the SARS virus crossed over to humans from Asian palm civets ("civet cats"wink which raised concerns over the safety of civet coffee

Pets
Some of the indigenous people in Peninsular Malaysia, the Orang Asli, may occasionally keep pet civets.[citation needed] Other people wishing for an exotic pet without the responsibility of a large animal also own civets as pets, although this practice is mostly illegal.

Urban environments Edit
Palm civets often venture into urban and suburban environments, with people often complaining about civet feces or noise from the animals climbing on roofs. Some studies have been undertaken to examine and mitigate human-animal conflict in these cases.

And u made sense? Pls answer this simple question. If u see a snake in ur backyard and u have young ones around, would u first make a research to determine if the snake is harmful or not, or will u kill it at the first opportunity u have. I'm waiting for ur reply.

Sell the skin ooo no burn am oo
The civet produces a musk (also called civet) highly valued as a fragrance and stabilizing agent for perfume. Both male and female civets produce the strong-smelling secretion, which is produced by the civet's perineal glands. It is harvested by either killing the animal and removing the glands, or by scraping the secretions from the glands of a live animal.

in an ideal environment, wot u've typed up there is very valid, bt in our unideal environment it doesn't make any sense 2me. Our orientation about all these animals isn't enough, any animal dat has slight difference compared 2 our own domestic animals is considered harmful, hence, dey're killed. Don't blame us.
U'll stop having sympathy for thieves d day dey rob u of a very valuable thing.

Rat population? In the wild?

He didn't say he killed it to eat it. Or that the people who killed it did so because they were hungry. Professional hunters sometimes hunt for sport.
