Are kid cages protecting N.M.
children, or a case of ranchers crying wolf? - A child waiting for a
school bus in Reserve, a tiny community in rural New Mexico, may feel a little
caged in, perhaps claustrophobic — but that’s precisely the point. About a half-dozen wooden and mesh "kid
cages" are located at bus stops in the rural, western New Mexico town,
where there have been sightings of the Mexican gray wolf. Some of the 300 or so
residents say the shelters could save the life of a child who waits in the
predawn hours for a ride to school, but critics say they are part of an effort
by ranchers to demonize the animals……"They’re designed so children can
step up in them and sit down and wait for the bus……but their purpose is under
renewed scrutiny as the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) proposes to extend
Endangered Species Act protections for an estimated 75 Mexican gray wolves in
New Mexico and Arizona. Ranchers are opposed to the extension, and claim that
the wolves, which prey on livestock but have not been known to attack humans in
the area, should be hunted….Continue reading ....
My Take – This
is clearly a safety issue that would be obvious to any sane person living in
these areas, but the Wildlife Service intends to stink up the place with a
clearly unwarranted and, in my opinion, illegal interpretation of the Endangered
Species Act. I would like to know by
what insane thinking these environmental activists at the Interior Department
think they can tell local’s they can’t protect their children with buildings
that represent no direct or indirect harm to anything?
Four
things.
This is just
one more reason to abolish the ESA, and the Wildlife service and eliminate the
Interior Department.
Secondly; this
is a clear demonstration that activist’s claims about what they do is “for the
children” is blatantly false! Most of
what they have promoted has been “to” the children, not “for” the
children.
Third; these
cages aren’t going to influence the locals one bit. People who live in these rural areas, where ranches
and farms exist as a way of life, already believe the wolves need to be hunted
and their numbers seriously reduced.
Finally; does
this mean if someone runs an article in the local newspaper demanding broader
hunting privileges of these predators they can fall under the control of the
ESA, as applied by the Wildlife Service, because they “influence” people to
hunt wolves?
We have lost
our minds! What is wrong with a society that allows corrupt, irrational, misanthropic and morally defective
activists to have power as government bureaucrats, who are out of control. We have lost our minds!
