You're taking what I said out of context. I said that the 2 that were shot were not endangering the people and I don't believe it was justifiable to kill them (In other words I said they broke the law which I fell is absolutely wrong and they should be punished for it).
What I meant by saying that they shouldn't do anything to people for killing one. Is that I think it should be legal to kill one (also I would still make them report the kill and turn the carcass, fur, parts etc... over to MDC.) Missouri doesn't have a recognizable population of them and my opinion is that we don't really need them.
I don't think there's any right or wrong as far as rather a person thinks we should have them here or not. While I don't think we need them, it wouldn't bother me if we had them either.
And honestly if I see one, I'm not going to shoot it and don't have any plans on shooting one. They're really a pretty fascinating animal.
