[QUOTE]Originally posted by Veers: [QB] [QUOTE] WASHINGTON -- The Bush administration is proposing far-reaching changes to conservation policies that would allow hunters, circuses and the pet industry to kill, capture and import animals on the brink of extinction in other countries. Giving Americans access to endangered animals, officials said, would both feed the gigantic U.S. demand for live animals, skins, parts and trophies, and generate profits that would allow poor nations to pay for conservation of the remaining animals and their habitats. [/QUOTE]This says it would allow people to kill animals on the brink of exinction. And that doing so would not only feed the US demand for skins, parts, and trophies, but apparently encourage poor nations to pay for conserving their animals. So--we want to start killing endangered animals in order to encourage people to save them. That's EXACTLY like the Vietnam analogy! Destroying something to save it. And you say you don't agree with killing the animals--that's why we're so furious. Going out to find endangered animals for zoos is not as ludicrous as going out just to kill them to feed our demand for skins and trophies. [/QB][/QUOTE]
