Oh but PETA, the HSUS, or dozens of other animal rights groups will raise millions using cuddly wolves, seals, etc., so you'd think they could use some of those millions to RESTORE moose herds decimated by the wolves they want to save.

They could use some of their funds to STOCK more moose, like HUNTERS did with deer/wild turkey using the Pittman/Robertson money they raise.

But you won't see that happen. All they do is TALK about saving animals by outlawing hunting, eating meat, medical research, wearing leather, while more than half of the HSUS board of directors make above $50,000 annually (The HSUS president makes more than half a million plus lucrative perks).

These AR groups' records on saving wildlife is worse than it is in saving domestic cats and dogs from euthanasia, by funding spaying/neutering programs and local shelters.

I've come to the conclusion that PETA and the others are not genuinely interested in the environment. They are truly domestic terrorists. Remember the minks they let loose? That was a mess, and so were the houses that were torched, and the brand new SUVs that were set on fire, and vandalized. All those terrorist acts did was to mess up air quality.

Hunters and fishermen definitely do more for wildlife, because they actually know something about wildlife preservation.

It's not unusual for the gray wolves on Isle Royale National Park to target each other, said John Vucetich, a Michigan Tech University wildlife biologist who witnessed the carnage from an airplane in January.

Why would they use their millions of $$ to actually support conservation efforts when they could use it to fund lawsuits?
