A petty dispute re. occupancy of a deer killing hide in Wisconsin, USA escalated into a bloodbath when animal abusers turned their guns on each other.

5 hunters slain and another three wounded "in the bag". This novel approach to hunting will hopefully be taken up by those denied the opportunity to torment small mammals when hunting ban comes into force across the water. read full story / add a comment
