Best carry a gun while hiking.

PORT ANGELES, Wash. - Rangers in Washington state suspect an encounter with a mountain goat killed a 63-year-old hiker in Olympic National Park.
The park service says Robert H. Boardman, of Port Angeles, was hurt Saturday as he hiked near the park's Klahhane Ridge and died hours later at a Port Angeles hospital.
Officials did not provide any specifics on his injuries but said an early investigation indicates they were the result of an encounter with a goat.
Rangers tracked down and killed the animal, which will be analyzed by a veterinary pathologist.

That's the story. I think it is just wrong for the rangers to track down and kill the goat. First for basic reason, it eats green stuff not meat, so the guy was in the wrong place, wrong time, sad, sorry, but why kill the goat. Second, how the heck are they going to know they got the right goat before they shoot it, you believe they are going to be able to spot blood on goats horns from a distance. Third, what the heck are they going to analyze it for? Just shaking my head still.
