His having an orchard, I can definitely see the guy’s point, though I never understood human fear of coyotes. Where I grew up coyotes were afraid of humans. A family member once had an Akita that would hunt moles . The dog would search with head close to the ground, then suddenly start furiously digging until a mole would fly up out of the ground. It was great.

Saw a beautiful red fox yesterday out here in Breck. ( where are you ous ) Then heard a coyote cry for half an hour at 3 am.

interesting

Sorry Trad, I just know how to push your buttons.

After reading some of your links though I'm really depressed.

"WWF’s 2006 Living Planet Report, the group’s biennial statement on the state of the natural world, says that on current projections humanity will be using two planets’ worth of natural resources by 2050 — if those resources have not run out by then. It also confirms the trend of biodiversity loss seen in previous Living Planet reports.

Already resources are depleting, with the report showing that vertebrate species populations have declined by about one-third in the 33 years from 1970 to 2003. At the same time, humanity’s Ecological Footprint — the demand people place upon the natural world — has increased to the point where the Earth is unable to keep up in the struggle to regenerate.

"We are in serious ecological overshoot, consuming resources faster than the Earth can replace them," WWF International’s Director General James Leape said. “The consequences of this are predictable and dire."

Actually, he seems to put quite a bit of effort into it.

wolves were reintroduced to Isle Royale National Park in northern MI in an attempt to control the moose population

saw that...imported from canada, right?

yup think so, along with a 12er of Lebatt Blue and some poutine.

I kind of wonder whether moose populations in CO may ever need to be kept in check.

I suppose a population could just as easily be controlled by hunting tags, at least in non-national park areas, as opposed to introducing or reintroducing predators.

on a related note, I saw this security cam footage a couple weeks ago. I fish near here all the time. I know they're there, but it's still spooky to actually see:

ousie winning the interwebz today

lol think I fixed it.

that's what I get for posting about wildcats on a KU message bored.

lol

This is true.
I hiked on there for a week back in the day.
Didn’t see or hear a wolf but saw a shit load of moose...one about thirty feet away when I was walking off to take a piss.
