See what happens when you walk up to a beaver that hasn't been ID tagged with the Conservation Department? Ban beavers! |

Put 'Huntley Meadows Park, Alexandria, VA' into Mapquest. Look just north - that's the golf course. The park has all kinds of trees and water. But, the folks are not allowed to trap the beaver. Stupid. Salmonbait I guess my question would be... were the beavers in the area before the golf course was built?? |

I'm not *depending* upon self-described "sportsmen" to do anything other than slaughter defenseless animals. You don't really think Ducks Unlimited, et al, are interested in anything more than ways to provide more critters to shoot. It isn't altruism. I appreciated the land set-asides, but I know what is behind them. I think if you have a golf course, you should be willing to share it with whatever wildlife manages to hang on there by its fingernails. |

John is creating habitat hitting a little white ball, you deride that too. The problem is land costs money and the tree huggers always what to "save" someone else's land. There is no Sierra Club or PETA game preserve. That is why I am proud of SW Florida for actually voting to buy conservation land. It is pretty rare.

There is still a breeding population. Perhaps if "hunter sportsmen" had to down and slaughter their prey with a hunting knife it might be hunting and sporting. |

They are the only ones who are preserving species that are rapidly going extinct in the wild. It is a managed population. PETA says they would rather have them extinct than have someone shoot one occasionally. I guess they never saw a lion take down a grazing animal. If so they would never say hunting was cruel. Is there something wrong with preserving habitat for the sake of preserving habitat, without having the slaughter of animals as a motivator? John is creating habitat hitting a little white ball, you deride that too. The problem is land costs money and the tree huggers always what to "save" someone else's land. There is no Sierra Club or PETA game preserve. That is why I am proud of SW Florida for actually voting to buy conservation land. It is pretty rare. Managed population is a euphemistic way of saying canned hunt. OK. so? Lions take down grazing animals to eat and survive, not for sport. I was fairly neutral on "hunting" until a decade or so ago, when I saw a TV video of a "brave hunter" shooting and killing some distance away a sheep with fancy horns. What a brave man. So what. There is still a breeding population. If you have followed Harry's modus operandi over the years, then you will have noticed that he seeks out those who seem to have a soft spot somewhere in their psychological make up or back ground. He will then chip away at that spot trying to force some sort of emotional blow up. This is a form of bullying of course which Harry seems to find amusing for some reason. It would be all too easy to compile a list of some of his past victims that he has driven from this group. Mr Hypocrite himself, drooling over with false concern for the down trodden of the world, getting his jollies by trying to push people over the edge. It's pretty sick behavior and typical for a sociopath. When no one seems to be rising to the bait, Harry will invent a new sock puppet or invite a few "friends" over from some other group. The antidote for all this is to just cut him off and ignore the sock puppets when they becme known. |

Save it from what? The animals of the earth have been using the enviornment for their benefit for millions and millions of years. I think it is ironic that the only habitat that seems to be available for these animals is the golf course, perhaps the most unnatural plot of land you can have. That's not true. We've seen beavers in the creekbed behind our house. It most definitely is not a golf course. One of the problems is that more and more "critter habitat" is being chopped down and clear cut, and the critters simply have nowhere to go. I'd rather see an untouched wooded area than another area mowed down for another golf course or shopping center. You are out in the boonies, compared to areas closer to DC. If you really want to preserve beaver habitat, spend some money, buy that land and set it aside for preservation. Why are you depending on sportsmen to do it and then demean the sport that drives them to set aside that land? Ducks Unlimited and the other hunting organizations have protected more wet land than EPA, PETA and the humane society combined and they did it without stealing property from it's owner. Golf courses may represent the only real green space in a lot of suburban areas. Most people do everything they can to discourage wildlife in their own neighborhoods and then they put a PETA sticker on their car and tell other people what they have to do on their property. Don't forget about the IWLA. |
