In summary, a 5-year old Albin was shot and killed today by a Dane who is unrepentant. Ole Frost, the shooter, is still at large and may face charges. Albin was a honorary member of the community and will be missed.

Albin MURDERED today!

It is with great sadness I must report that 5-year old Albin, our ghostly white moose whose life has been regarded as sacrosanct among the local hunters, today lost his life because a stupid Dane didn't know who he was facing.
He took aim, and SHOT Albin totally dead! :cry:

Wow, I could totally read this! Other than that, though, I'm sorry Albin died. Maybe a new animal will help you get over Albin. I have no idea who Albin is, though.

For 5 years, Albin has been a honorary member here at PF where we have followed his tribulations and fight against dangerous hunters.

Ole Frost is utterly unrepentant:
"Had I been given a new chance tomorrow, I'd still shoot him".

he goes on to say he shot a "fine ox, with great antlers".
Of course Albin was a fine ox, that is why he shouldn't be killed!

Here is last picture of Albin, deceased:

Gee, hope old Ole isn't accidently mistaken for an ox. Our own former Vice President can attest to mistaking a bright orange hunting vest for a quail.

They aren't going to allow that creep to keep Albin?

Maybe they should tie Albin round his neck and make him live like that for a while.

Perhaps we should force feed him with Albin's remains?
