Just returned home from a LONG trip and found this very interesting article, so thought I'd post it.

Interesting points made in this article. I just finished an article about a popular trout stream in Tennessee (popular because of the non native trout tailwater fishery).
The resource manager recently made decisions that many anglers feared could destroy the fishery, in an effort to accomodate some endangered mussels and darters.
So, I found this article really interesting.
It’s good to be home, and back on FR.

Wow. Some real common sense coming from a university on the subject of wildlife! Excellent.

It is time, says a U of T biologist, that we began 'to think of humans as part of the natural world' Pitiful

Good article and welcome back.
Kinda surprising that someone recognizes that we are part of nature and has the guts to write about. :)
The eco-nutbars will never go along with that though. If they accepted it they couldn’t use every moving thing as a means to stop all development, drilling, mining, etc.
Besides, those salamanders are so cute. :-)

I find the clasifications of subspecies as “different” to be ridiculous. OK, there are fish with 5 spots and fish with 8 spots.... but they aren’t different species!!!
