Iranian hunters"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>A wild bear with two precious<br \/>\nCubs was way laid so I hear<br \/>\nThe mother murdered on the spot<br \/>\nThe two sweet bears in fear<br \/>\nWere both stabbed very violently<br \/>\nTheir stomachs opened wide<br \/>\nExposing their intestines<br \/>\nGaping from inside<\/p>\n<p>Imagine the pain and suffering<br \/>\nThe fear and protection they<br \/>\nExpected from their mother<br \/>\nWho had already passed away<br \/>\nThey felt lost without her<br \/>\nUp against these carnal men<br \/>\nThese evil rotten bandits<br \/>\nWho knew exactly when<\/p>\n<p>They picked them up then by their ears<br \/>\nAnd dashed them against the rock<br \/>\nThese were assassinations<br \/>\nIt must have been the shock<br \/>\nEach had never imagined<br \/>\nOf the true century<br \/>\nOut walking with their mother<br \/>\nAnd attacked so frightfully<\/p>\n<p>They were evil nasty fellows<br \/>\nTheir irascibility<br \/>\nTheir gruffness and their temper<br \/>\nAnd their bellicosity<br \/>\nTo do this to the babies<br \/>\nIs hatred of a race<br \/>\nAn aversion to their wildness<br \/>\nAnd thats why JILL gave chase<\/p>\n<p>The hunters ran off thinking<br \/>\nThey might just get away<br \/>\nBut someone recorded what had happened<br \/>\nAnd to the BBC did play<br \/>\nThe events and they were terrible<br \/>\nThe craveh hearted band<br \/>\nHad really tortured these little souls<br \/>\nAnd all  done by their hand<\/p>\n<p>Those babies all a quiver<br \/>\nFeel them shiver it was dire<br \/>\nA slow death from the stabbing<br \/>\nThat agony and fire<br \/>\nThat ruptured their existence<br \/>\nKnowing one&#8217;s mother is dead<br \/>\nKnowing that you are all alone<br \/>\nAnd its all inside your head<\/p>\n<p>Hunters so called have their indiscretions<br \/>\nTempt their fate<br \/>\nOf course they court disaster<br \/>\nAnd try to confiscate<br \/>\nThe evidence of murder<br \/>\nBut clearly this was why<br \/>\nThis family was accosted<br \/>\nAnd left out there to die<\/p>\n<p>A member of the parliament<br \/>\nGot wind of their concern<br \/>\nAnd interfered with the investigations<br \/>\nHe wanted to learn<br \/>\nMore about the ugly scene<br \/>\nAnd deflect the animals rights<br \/>\nIssues seen on social media<br \/>\nHe tried to dull the sights<\/p>\n<p>Drawing in the politics<br \/>\nTalking up the regime<br \/>\nAccusations of something else<br \/>\nFew ever heard them scream<br \/>\nThose baby bears their mother gone<br \/>\nClearly a hopeless cause<br \/>\nWith murdering hunters on the case<br \/>\nAnd neither one would pause<\/p>\n<p>Wild animals have status<br \/>\nThey should be protected by<br \/>\nSadists who would murder them<br \/>\nIts really one big lie<br \/>\nA spratt to catch a mackerel<br \/>\nTo talk up politics<br \/>\nTo make it international<br \/>\nTo knock empathy for six<\/p>\n<p>Hunting is a rotten pastime<br \/>\nSo unfair and wrong<br \/>\nThe spunk these little bears possessed<br \/>\nAgainst this ugly throng<br \/>\nIt cannot be imagined<br \/>\nTaking on the plight<br \/>\nWatching their mother murdered<br \/>\nAnd not able to take flight<\/p>\n<p>Jill  Robinson took the case up<br \/>\nPetitioned us all to say<br \/>\nWhat had happened and why it  had happened<br \/>\nOn the given day<br \/>\nIran looked kind of shadowy<br \/>\nIt was not that strong a case<br \/>\nAnd so she fought across the many months<br \/>\nAnd at a pace<\/p>\n<p>The tedium was obvious<br \/>\nJustice for some bears<br \/>\nShe met with some indifference<br \/>\nThey are complex affairs<br \/>\nBeing laden down with grief<br \/>\nCompared with some who see<br \/>\n3 bears just as animals<br \/>\nTheir Wildness wandering free<\/p>\n<p>I have to take my hat off<br \/>\nTo a single lass who took<br \/>\nIt really  to the Iranians<br \/>\nTrying to use the book<br \/>\nTo catch up with these scoundrels<br \/>\nAnd get them charged for they<br \/>\nThis was courage this was will<br \/>\nAnd benevolence I say<\/p>\n<p>Love for these wild animals<br \/>\nAnd prepared to take those on<br \/>\nWho thought they would get away with it<br \/>\nThe camouflage to don<br \/>\nAnd sneak off into the forest<br \/>\nJust kind of slink away<br \/>\nBut this lady is a fighter<br \/>\nWho  we can all learn from today<\/p>\n<p>Not prepared to give up the fight Jill Robinson<br \/>\nYou showed true tenacity and courage<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A wild bear with two precious Cubs was
