There will always be spirit bears unless they are specifically hunted because they are white....

or crowded out of their habitat, or killed off because of some polutant, or .........
If the spirit bears were born in the first place you can count on there being the recessive gene in black coloured bears that will propagate the gene furthur

So far that's the way it's been going on, yup. Have any more blatantly obvious things to point out?

BTW, sure we manage things concerning wildlife, but human management of nature has really sucked so far.

Nope, I never did but I can't say I wouldn't.
I guess you don't live down town Toronto then. :)
What you're saying though is that a dog is a dog, while I am trying to tell you that there are all sorts of breeds that encompass distinct groups under the heading black bear.

I'm sure conservation hunters know that.
As for being a nuisance, you can't move into an animals territory and then accuse it of being a nuisance. Go back to what Gilbert said about being a parasite verses symbiotic relationship.

Why the hell would I want to live in downtown Toronto?

If I was going to say a dog is a dog, I would have said a dog is a dog. If it is a brown dog, it is a brown dog. I said a colour (or shade, just in case nit-pickers choose to use it) and I said a general species. Who gives a damn for specifics if ba'ar wants your berry patch?

Native populations were wise enough to know the spring bear hunt taught the cubs to stay away from man. Without that fear, they just grow up to be big, dumb, hungry bears. They were the people who were here - and lived in harmony with the bush - long before Europeans imposed their profit-margin world on everything. The spring bear hunt was still respected up until 1999 - before the tree-huggers lobbied the Harris government into cancelling it because of the risk of "poor orphan bear cubs". If people who know nothing about the environment would stop humanizing the bush, they could call themselves environmentalists.

On the prairies I feel we need to monopolize on the protein potential of all the Richardson's ground squirrels (gophers to many but are really squirrels).

If each has potential of 1000 calories, and 5 million or so squirrels that is enough for 15 million meals.

Not to mention the bone meal for gardens and all the pelts for W.H.Y such as a cod pieces for male strippers or bum wipe for aristocrats in Paris.

If you're lifestyle is to club baby seals for the fashion industry and leave the skinned carcus on the ice then yeah I will attack your lifestyle. It's wrong and we shouldn't do it.

No matter which way you slice it the seal hunt is welfare. We can do better and that is all any one is asking.

I agree. On the other hand, native populations were smaller and lived more symbiotically. We are different.

I lived near there too. They love the fruit as much as we do. They have one ood quality. They are as reliable as roosters for crowing at sunrise.
