    So just cut a chunk off while it's still living? Ha. The article title is poorly worded.

    Residents fall between horses and cats in importance? I get it though; don't eat animals that you found dead.....I didn't really think it needed to be said. Starvation can make people to stupid things to feed themselves. Maybe the government should focus on the real problem down there.

    Seems they are doing a pretty good job of keeping that part of Mindanao quarantined.....though that quarantine seems to have little to do with any virus. :wink:
