2 Boys, 12 and 13 years old, kill 500,000 honey bees at Iowa Honey Farm What is life worth living for if you can't have a little fun? A couple of kids kill 500,000 honey bees for kicks. Since they are kids, what can you do to them? ----- ----- 2 Boys Arrested After Vandalism That Killed 500,000 Bees On Iowa Honey Farm HuffPost Mary Papenfuss,HuffPost 2 hours 46 minutes ago Two boys are facing felony charges after vandalism at an Iowa honey farm killed 500,000 bees, according to police. Two boys are facing felony charges after vandalism at an Iowa honey farm killed 500,000 bees, according to police. Police say the boys, ages 12 and 13, wrecked equipment and knocked over 50 hives at the Wild Hill Honey farm in Sioux City last month. All of the bees — at least half a million — died in the snow. Owners Justin and Tori Englehardt found the dead bees when they went to clear snow off the hives on their 18-acre property. “We found complete destruction of our hives and supply shed,” they wrote on their Facebook page. “They knocked over every single hive, killing all the bees. They wiped us out completely,” Justin Engelhardt told The Sioux City Journal. “They broke into our shed, they took all our equipment out and threw it out in the snow, smashed what they could. Doesn’t look like anything was stolen; everything was just vandalized or destroyed. He called the crime “completely senseless.” The loss was estimated at $60,000. The devastation was so complete that the couple feared they couldn’t afford to revive the six-year-old operation. The business wasn’t insured; bee operations usually can’t get insurance, according to Engelhardt. But a friend of the Engelhardts started a GoFundMe page that quickly raised more than $30,000 in donations. They now plan to rebuild. “We cannot adequately express how grateful we are to everyone who has sent kind words and to those willing to help us out. It’s been overwhelming,” the couple wrote on their Facebook page. “We had no idea our plea for help with identifying the vandals was going to travel so far and wide. People have been so generous, we will definitely be able to bring our bee sanctuary back to its former glory. Thank you to everyone for your support and understanding.” Engelhardt believes the response was so overwhelming because people care about honeybees and their struggle for survival. “Bees are critical and people are conscious of the fact that bees are having a hard time right now and facing some real challenges,” Englehardt told The Sioux City Journal. The boys face three felony charges for criminal mischief, agricultural animal facilities offenses and burglary, according to a news release by the Sioux City Police Department. The boys are not being named because they are minors. Police thanked the public for tips that helped in the investigation. This article originally appeared on HuffPost. | |

Teens having fun. I was never into hunting when I was a kid. But some teens are serious hunters. One question: why don't they shoot each other, instead of deer or birds that can't can't shoot back? Wouldn't that be more of a thrill? ---- ---- Miami Herald | MiamiHerald.com Washington teens killed deer to bait and shoot eagles, police say | Miami Herald Four Washington teens were detained for killing deer, gathering their carcasses and using them to bait and hunt eagles, police say. By Jared Gilmour jgilmour@mcclatchy.com January 18, 2018 09:01 PM Updated 7 hours 33 minutes ago The teens had killed five deer, police said. But deer weren’t what they were really hunting. When a sheriff’s deputy in Klickitat County, Wash., detained three teenagers for having a loaded rifle in their vehicle on Jan. 15, the deputy at first had planned to let them off with a warning, police said. But then the deputy realized none of the teens were licensed to drive the vehicle they were in, according to state fish and wildlife police. The loaded rifle wasn’t the only suspicious thing in the car, either: There was deer hair and fresh blood as well, police said. Once police saw the blood and hair, the deputy and fish and wildlife police started searching the surrounding area. What they found was a doe, recently killed, on a nearby hillside. One of the teens had shot the deer the night before, police said. The carcass wasn’t far from where the car had been parked. Near the doe were four other deer carcasses, police said, all older and in varying states of decomposition. Deer, however, weren’t the teens’ target. They were after eagles, and had arranged the decomposing carcasses in a cluster hoping “to bait in and shoot eagles,” according to fish and wildlife police. After police noticed the cluster of dead deer, they discovered a fourth juvenile, 17, on a hill above them. The teenager told police he had shot an eagle and then had been looking for it, police said. Authorities seized two rifles during the encounter, but were unable to recover the eagle. Any criminal charges will be handled by the county prosecutor's office, police said. Two of the teens were 17 years old, and two were 15, according to police. The teens could be charged for killing the eagle, which is a legally protected bird in the state, as well as for closed season harvest of deer, according to Jeff Wickersham, a captain with the state’s fish and wildlife police. They could also face firearms-related charges, he said. It’s not the first time police have encountered a situation like this, either. “This particular area has been used in this way in the past, in 2012 and 2014,” Wickersham said. “Deer were being used as bait, killed and left on hillsides. There were charges filed by another agency in those cases.” Bald eagles and golden eagles are the two types of eagles found in Washington state, according to the Audubon Society. Western Washington is home to a large concentration of bald eagles, while golden eagles are commonly found in the eastern part of the state. Klickitat County is in south central Washington, on the border with Oregon. Both types of eagle are safeguarded by federal law, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. For a first conviction, illegally killing an eagle can carry a maximum fine of $5,000 or one year in prison under the federal Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. Police are still looking for the dead eagle, Wickersham said. | |

Regardless of whatever "fun" was had, bees are on the extinction list and are imperative to our survival as a species. They massacred animals for sport and this is disgusting behavior.  | |

Yes. It's the stupid ones who are going to bring down the whole lot of us. And they have been making progress! I wanted something new, so I left England for New England. | |
