October 11, 2003the truthHere is a perfect example of the difference between environmentalists and outdoorsmen: Decades ago, the environmentalists adopted a bird as their symbol -- the condor. The hunters got a bird too -- the wild turkey. When the environmentalists adopted the condor, there were a couple dozen left in existence. And today, there are still a couple dozen. When the hunters adopted the wild turkey, there were a couple thousand. Now there are more than 20 million wild turkeys in North America. Today, we kill more wild turkey each year in Michigan alone during the legal hunting season than there were in existence in the 20s and 30s. And that's with regulations to harvest just the surplus! Like it or not, that's the way the world works. Thanks to this guy for the wise words of Ted Nugent.

The same could be said about the Peregrine Falcon. There were only a handful of them in the 80s. The feds tried to help, to no avail. Only captive breeding and release programs started by falconers were successful. Now the population is back up to its pre-DDT levels and has been removed from the endangered list.

Killin babies is ok but don't dare eat that lobster. Posted by: DaneBramage on October 11, 2003 12:13 PMFree market economics is totally beyond the comprehension of the left. This is also true about drugs. Alcohol is plentiful and relatively cheap. Good alcohol requires a lot of care, quality control, and time (aging) but is still relatively cheap considering production costs. Profit is pretty good but still moderate. And even worse, I just don't see any cool movies like the "Untouchables" or "The Godfather" being made about organized crime rings of fish black marketeers.
