The Onion is not a credible news source.

But you can't say that animal attacks aren't a problem in America, and that something should be done about them.

Actually, you might have a point there. Karl Marx did say that hunter-gatherer societies were an example of primitive communism, so gorillas are technically communist.

It's pretty well-known that the Onion is a satirical website.

If we chose to go in quarrels with animals without prior reason, then I have little to say than to say that I don't wish for you to live anymore.

Non-intellectual moment here people: Taking the Onion seriously is like relying on Fox for Democrat news.
