Why not lighten up a bit for the new year? Besides, your ESAD/FOAD buddy is not around to appreciate that sort of thing. |

The problem has to do with the fact that they are 'protected'. These are not migratory birds. They are feathered **** producers. -- Hope you're day is spectacular! |

Problem is they don't go back to Canada anymore. Spend their life here, breed here. More food, and with power plants, open water all year. Some state back east, has an extra season for local geese. Before the migratory ones arrive. They have taken over lots of parks here also. Luckily I only seem to have a few mallard ducks use my swimming pool, and the geese fly over from the local lake. |

The problem, pointed out in Time, is that these protected species have now bred out of control and they are not in any danger anymore.' Canada Geese, white tail deer and raccoons were never in any danger. They are simply regulated by hunting regulations and where it is illegal to hunt, they have become pests. Municipalities are rethinking those regulations. Japan is overrun by raccoons and they are destroying ancient buildings that are thousands of years old. Black bears have become significant suburban pests in places where they were unknown for the last 150 years. It only took 30 years for the "Florida Panther" (AKA cougar/Mountian Lion) to rebound to the point that they are showing up in people's yards, eating their pets. It is only a matter of time until they start eating kids. I guess you all know about the pythons. California even put more protection on mountain lions this year. They are not endangered, have decimated the few remaining wild bighorn sheep in this state. We have several around here. One a couple years ago, was seen on two different school grounds in the same day. Shopping for lunch? Sort of like sea lions. Way over protected. Can not even haze them away from an area. La Jolla Cove in La Jolla is a prime example. People can not use the cove anymore. http://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/loca...237452931.html Plus the sea lions are aggressive to people. |
