Colorado man who wanted to kill coyotes poisons 5 bald eagles

A 77-year-old man who lives in the San Luis Valley has pleaded guilty to 10 misdemeanors after Colorado Parks and Wildlife said he put out poison that claimed the lives of five bald eagles, a coyote, a fox, magpies, crows and ravens.

Local rancher John Divine told wildfire officers that he put out the poison because coyotes were killing his sheep.

This is the culmination of a more-than-year-long investigation that began in January 2017, when a Colorado Parks and Wildlife officer got a call from a man who found parts of a sheep in culvert that appeared to be slathered with poison

Trump only hates non-whites. And poor people. And Democrats. And anyone who is not him. And him, too.
