also the newest tactic by the environmental wackos:
Claim that global warming is causing (insert animal/mammal name here) numbers to dwindle.
Their latest one is they want polar bears to be listed as an endangered specis, even though there is 30,000 of them in Canada and Alaska.
Yes, but not a single polar bear sighting has been reported in Texcas or New Mexico in over ten years. That pretty much cinches it, eh?
