As this is a government-mandated animal slaughter, you may ask where the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) have been in the process. They have been curiously absent, giving us a clear picture of their definition of "conservation." In fact, HSUS` congressional allies, U.S. Sens. Dianne Feinstein and Barbara Boxer and U.S. Rep. Lois Capps, blocked NRA`s efforts to prevent the slaughter in 2007 by inserting a provision into the omnibus appropriations bill that reinstated the extermination order. The animal-saving law blocked by the three lawmakers would have allowed disabled veterans to hunt the majestic elk and mule deer based on biologists` harvest recommendations.

The Delta Smelt was introduced into the waterways in Central California a whole lot later than the elk and mule deer on the island. This issue has shut down water for irrigation for farms in Central California. Boxer and Feinstein are cynical allies of the effort to keep water away from farms to protect this false endangered fish. I'll stop now before getting myself taken to the woodshed.
