Re: [OM] Drones

[Tina Manley]

Yes, the recent video that went viral of the baby bear cub trying to catch
up to it's mother on a snowy mountain was caused by a drone buzzing the
animals and scaring the baby.

I would never do that.  We do have some hawks I might want to buzz,
though.  Only after they attack my chickens.  One of my favorites was
attacked and killed yesterday.  Jasmine was in the house and she usually
keeps the hawks away.
