Just plain stupid. This supposed “invasion” was Mother Nature at work....likely precipitated by an increase in the rodent population.
Yes, let’s interfere with nature. What could go wrong? Where’s PETA when you “need” them? Oh, yeah, stealing puppies from homeless people...
What kind of other imbalances are they creating by eliminating these owls? Any concerns for a drastic increase in the local rodent populations?
This might make a great test case for the Chevron ruling. Can yo imagine them sending people with rifles al over the state to shoot owls?
Can you imagine the type of people willing to do it?
I’m sure Deep State has those on standby.
Abd if Deep State should run short, there’s always the Capitol PD.
This is about parasites aka free lance hunters n snipers getting Federal paychecks for mass killing owls. Hopefully there is a uproar against this mass murder of a beautiful species. We have owls where I live. Small burrowing owls.
Meanwhile, just checked.
PETA doesn’t give a hoot.
Quelle suprise.
The spotted owl issue is a hoax. One nested in a traffic circle in Everett and had to be removed to a more appropriate area.They are just putting men with rifles all over the state after Ferguson eliminated the residency requirement for voting.
Man is an arrogant idiot.
I agree. Someone needs to put a stop on this.
The Left is only “Darwinian” when it serves their purposes, such as degrading God and His people.
Hope those states enjoy rodents, cause they are in for quite the increase.
For 50 years they blamed the logger and now the truth comes out with this insane plan. How do you hunt owls in the middle of a dense forest?
But, then again, maybe they do and it's not going to be good for any of us. :(
Going to war against nature to save it. This demonstrates the hubris of the conservationist who knows better than nature how it should be managed. Perhaps it is time for the spotted owl to become an extinct species. It happens to all species sooner or later.
Trying to control nature using the same philosophy they use to control the economy.
Unless the spotted owls are being starved by the barred owls, the barred owls should be free to proliferate.
This is why overturning Chevron was a good thing. Some bureaucrat has deemed the “endangered” spotted owl the species that must survive at all costs. They will now hunt and kill its natural rivals. Our government is absolutely insane. End all the regulatory boards now! We have to start over.
>> To save the imperiled spotted owl from potential extinction, US wildlife officials are embracing a contentious plan: hire trained sharp-shooters to assassinate its rivals.
Sweet Jesus, what have we become?
