Prove what you say and they'll change things.
I'm not a biologist of any sorts but we have them at Mass. Dept. of wildlife and fisheries and they gripe about these folks to no ends. Ever talk to one yourself? In a democratic society we should listen to opposing views, weather we agree with them or not. When these groups won't even have the guts to listen to the other side, that spells trouble to me. Solid proof? I guess you don't read the news much. Seen coyote attacks lately? Almost a weekly occurance. No beaver problem? Talk to the countless property owners who have been flooded out causing thousands of $$$$ and to hear the state say there's nothing they can do about it, its the law! Ever hear of rabies? Have you noticed the mutitudes of dead skunks on the roads lately? There's your proof. Seen starving deer lately? Come to my neighborhood, I'll show you some, its pretty pathetic. Woodchucks by the way make great hats and mittens when I catch them on my farm.
