First of all SANDMAN thank you for standing up for all of us.
That same lady probably donated to the PETA organization that helped get leg-hold traps banned, which increased 10 fold the amount of forage food, (like racoon, foxes, groundhogs) that coyotes feed on, including them round little plovers. People like your fellow party-goer always take the easy way out and blame the obvious choice the guy with the 4 x 4 who travels the beach fishing. God forbid she actually looked into the problem more deeply and found out she and her ilk contributed to the problem more than any ever could have. In her shallow world I imagine her gene pool as only being puddle deep. The liberals, at least the lazy liberals, who think they are educated or maybe are educated would rather create a new rule than deal with a problem by using the value system in place. Wait till there is 1.2 billion people living on this continent, as in China, or just in this country and then try to convince that mass of humanity a plover is more important than one persons movement from one place to another. With all the money, time, and energy that these people have thrown at the so-called plover problem what they can't admit is there utter failure in the task at hand. I drive down Deluxebury beach backside road and watch four or five teenage girls getting paid 8 to 10 dollars an hour to watch the plover nest and keep traffic going 5 m.p.h. talking to a like amount of teenage boys not doing their job. For all these kids/people new there were no plovers inside the fence. Species sometimes do not survive, trees do get cut down (sometimes old growth), roads get built, and LIKWID those rubbers trees probably dont survive being drained of all their resources that go into making your wetsuits. I jumped out of my truck one morning at High Pines on the backside of Deluxebury Beach and found two of the mangiest most sickly foxes I have ever seen in my life staring at me. They weighed about 2 lbs a piece. If thats what a plover diet does for the foxes I dont see what the fuss is about anyway.
