Title: Some species making a comeback
Post by: ROX on February 17, 2009, 03:21:44 PM
Most of us have long heard that urban sprawl and man made encroachment is decimating wild habitat.

It is my belief that we should do all we can for this perticular species.

Boy when I saw beaver IN the link I didn't know what to expect!

Nice photo of that beaver eating that wood though.

This is what we have to do folks.  If you want to save the beavers, just destroy any and all viable industry.

An industry isn't viable if it needs to turn a river into a toxic waste dump.

Ha! They were hunted to near extinction in that area and are making a comeback there because of overpopulation elsewhere. No surprise. (http://i447.photobucket.com/albums/qq197/Chalenge08/costumed-smiley-011.gif)

I'll take being able to fish in a clean river over some crappy chemical factory any day.

Ah yes, the key stone species for wetlands.  Glad to see the beaver coming back in that area.
