But you know what should really be bothering him? The fact that he may very well be guilty of groundhog homicide, brought on by a bad case of butterfingers:

More from The Washington Free Beacon:

New York Mayor Bill de Blasio was holding up Chuck, the “Punxutawney Phil” of New York, on Feb. 2 when he infamously fumbled the winter-weather prognosticator, who fell nearly six feet to the ground.

The groundhog was found dead a week later. Now, the New York Post reports that there may have been a zoo coverup to keep de Blasio—and the public—from finding out about the details of the innocent beast’s demise.

This has all the trappings of a major scandal. PETA should be all over this.

Here’s said statement:

That’s it, PETA? That’s all you’ve got? New York City resident and master Twitter troll @redsteeze, for one, isn’t going to stand for that kind of half-assery:

@redsteeze It was an accident that never would have occurred had the organizers stopped using groundhogs: http://t.co/CPA8o0ayGv

@redsteeze You would have to ask the zoo that loans them out.

— PETA (@peta) September 25, 2014

A punt to the zoo? Oh, PETA … we expect better from you.

That’s pretty much how it works, yeah.

Seriously, PETA, what kind of game are you playing?

Well, well, well:

You know what might’ve prevented this tragedy?

@redsteeze And it's a shame. We have been advocating for the use of a robot for years now: http://t.co/KpWnQXwkl7

Now we’re talkin’!

We’d ask a groundhog to make a prediction, but, well, we don’t want to get him into trouble with de Blasio.
