In the wake of "wildlife warrior bloke" Steve Irwin's death, his duuuuuuuuumbest supporters have apparently concluded that the animal kingdom must be punished. Up to 10 mutilated stingrays have washed up in coastal waters since his death.

The stingrays probably have a larger capacity for abstract thought, but God love em, these fans sure can connect the dots.
