No doubt the ecowankers will be filing suits to prevent construction. Probably a salamander in the way someplace. TFB. Break ground.

I think I need a million dollar grant to study the effects of gated communities.

We have the technology to solve this problem.

Thinking very out of the box here (the litter box, that is), install cat doors on the wall.

The animals should be smart enough to know which side they can survive on.

My ex-wife was a yellow bellied tit warbler.

I wish she would move to Mexico and get walled out.

Never fear, wildlife will adapt and evolve. We’ll soon see wall lizards, wall rats, wall snakes, etc.

Being trampled by hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants’ feet does not do a whole lot for wildlife, either.

The toll on the numbers of rattlesnakes alone being crushed beneath the feet of this swarming horde is horrendous. To say nothing of any number of horned toads, coyotes and road runners.

If the animal deserves to live it will adapt to its surroundings

But locking up animals in small cages in zoos across the country is ok.

They can adapt or die. Isn’t that nature’s way?
