[QUOTE]Originally posted by Balaam Xumucane: [QB] I'll give you a knee-jerk. No, but seriously think about what you are defending. I admit that sometimes limited population control is a good idea in wildlife management, particularly in situations where the natural predators have been eliminated (generally via human intervention) and the resultant population explosion is beyond the region's capacity to support it. But that's not at all the situation what they are talking about here. They are talking about reducing the numbers of certain species whose populations are already so critically low so as to be near extinction. I ask you how will removing even more of them help even in the slightest? And I'm sorry but the belief that this money would go to future protection is such complete Bull-pucky that even you must see that? And putting them into over-crowded, under-funded zoos so they can putter away their free brains dwindling with regular feeding and inept attempts at forced breeding? Do you think that will balloon their populations? When is that going to happen? At some glimmering point in the dim and distant future where all Republicans seems to believe everything will be put to rights? At which point you will of course be miserably dead because we spent your Social Security procurring several Texan billionaires' oil interests and your raggedy grand-children are scraping around asphalt horizons desperately trying to make ends meet while Chinese wagon-wheel space stations cartwheel overhead and no ghost of any endagered species ever need fret because they were sacrificed for the good of industry. What you have is a trophy hunter with political connections who wants to shoot (presumbably with some absurdly high-powered assault rifle) a goat with straight horns instead of curly ones.
