story
the Nature Con and Parks Service are putting out Island Fox propaganda with the help of Parks hand-maidens like Chuck Graham who has a story in Noozhawk...they stopped printing my letters for some reason..NO ONE prints my letter anymore except me!Now, do you really think killing 5000 pigs and "removing" a few golden eagles had anything to do with the "recovery"..of course not! First of all, they didn't recover..they were not endangered to begin with.. the population fluctuated for a number of reasons, distemper
being one...the biologists panicked, created a problem, got money to kill animals, and now everything is hunky-dory! "You have to show success," Parks superintendent Galipeau said recently, "so people can see and believe the endangered species programs are working." You have to show success! he says..even if the restoration was orchestrated and the public manipulated... you fooled 'em, Russ! what a crock!Animal Cruelty has been a felony in California since 1988 and carries a maximum jail term of three years ... and exterminating animals for being labeled non-native is animal cruelty, pure and simple.. I am pro-hunting but most hunters will tell you this is mindless slaughter...how long before these inane policies spread to the mainland..US Fish and Wildlife people come knocking on your door wanting to confiscate your dog or cat for being "non-native"!
Bionativism rears its ugly head again as the "science of malice and intolerance"...Parks Biologists continue their cowardly actions... this is not hunting or culling, this is extermination..there's big difference! Did you ever see the ads on TV..drug companies have flooded the market with drugs that are supposed to treat everything from ADD to ED (both made-up disorders!)..but the drugs have side effects that CAN KILL YOU! It is absurd what they try to sell and what they expect the public to swallow....these are the tactics used by biologists on the Channel Islands..the side effects of restoration are much worse than the supposed disease or cure...biologists create an ecological "problem" or disease and then offer a cure..if the public buys into it, you got a job for life..killing things that create "problems!! It is an absolutely foolish way to approach or control nature...the consequences are everywhere..poison, removing "non-native" plants that stabilize soils..it is a mindset that needs to change, or the taxpayers will be throwing money into an abyss forever.
The restorations must be accompanied by an independent media...people need to see the poisoning, killing and destruction that goes on and the consequences to the environment....
Species wiped out by "biologists" so far on the Channel Islands:
pig eradication to benefit island fox ...(or native species)
turkey eradication to benefit island fox...
sheep eradication to benefit island fox...
fennel eradication to benefit island fox...
golden eagle eradication/removal to benefit island fox..
rat eradication to benefit island fox..
raccoons killed
deer to be killed for being "invasive"
olive trees gone because they are non -native
and the latest proposal..kill all cats on San Nicolas island..a year long killing spree
The bottom line is this is hype..pure and simple...the fox would have been fine with the pigs and golden eagles. This was island species cleansing...and a shameful chapter in the Parks Service and Nature Conservancy legacy..
