Don't worry, everyone. In about a months time we will have had enough meetings to decide how to deal with this outbreak. It may seem like we should act immediately, but let's "go through the proper channels" first .

I <3 MSU.

Matt Wright, this is obviously the SRA's fault just like Quarters! The SRA should be held accountable for their actions. Ian Finlay is somehow involved in this and he should also be punished for his actions!

Ian Finlay, lorend, temara.brown all say thanks to Nino for this post.

Don't forget everyone needs to be accountable and transparent.

When people do make a mistake, we have every right to criticize them! What is important is that they take their criticism's in a positive manner!
I think we should hire Students from the Animal Sciences department! I mean why spend thousand's of dollars paying Dog the bounty hunter for the job when we have our very own animal experts! I mean that IS what the course Anisci 2J03(Rare species) is about! Right?

Blame the MSU!?! Sure, that may be a fun drinking game, but this clearly goes to a much higher level and blame must be put on those who deserve it!

US AND THEM AGAINST THE WILD ANIMALS! US AND THEM!!!

I am writing an opinion piece right now for the Sil about how unacceptable this is. The MSU will rue the day a zebra/horse but related to the giraffe was allowed on campus.

Better Yet Start a refferendum! As expected it woudn't reach quorum because no one knows what a Okapi prevention centre is all about since no one promoted it. I can even imagine the protest chalk/banners after it!

*Picture of a Starving Socs Beaver" The Beaver was bullied out of its natural source of nutrition Stray Peanut M&M's and almost starved to death.

"Do You want to be Mauled by a Okapi? We don't!"

"McMaster is one of the only Universities in the world alongside Hogwarts with a Okapi sighting in the last 10 years!"

"MSU is run by white Horses"

"The Refferendum failed to include "zeb's" in its wordings"
