Did anyone watch 60 Minutes last night? I can't believe some fringe radical animal rights activist group was able to sway the government to outlaw the hunting of 4 African species that have been conserved in Texas, when the outcome is going to be that they will go extinct. Some insane woman in the interview said she would rather see them go extinct because they should only be conserved in Africa, which is where they went extinct already. Ah, our government at work, with its wisdom.  |

Extinction of the species has been going on forever. What has the start, certainly has the end. Nothing to lament about (comes to mind first few chapters of Bhagavad Gita).

Ah, our government at work, with its wisdom. ya but it sounds like it is probably not allowed because they are on the endangered list. If you let them get hunted then everytime there is a near extinct creature, then some rednecks want to go an hunt them and make tons of money. if they die of natural causes, the government can collect the bones and examine them to find out why they went extinct or something rather than having to buy them from the big tycoon who hunted them down. |
