Why don’t they kill the last of the few thousand Spotted Owls instead? That is much easier and saves everyone a lot of hassle.
Just put spots on the other owls.
Makes sense to me — speed up evolution. Why wait around for nature to do the job?
Over in England they do not like the gray squirrel. They want the red squirrel but it is being driven out of it’s area by the gray. I am guessing the owls are fighting over territory and the spotted owl is losing or we are being lied to about this. We need to build more Kmart signs for them to nest in.
