Makes it in the news etc. but no culprit is ever found. So very sad.

Of course poisoning animals is wrong. But, as I said earlier, it is the irresponsible pet owners that are ultimately responsible for all the threads, acts to deter animals from one's yard, and even, sadly, revenge against the pet owners that may end badly for the pet.
Imagine a sewage truck that unloads in your yard. One that you can't catch in the act. You know it's the driver that is responsible. Much easier to put spikes in the area to damage the truck than to fight with the driver.
