[QUOTE="curtis, post: 80425, member: 4506"] If any of you have looked at the news lately, you might have noticed some talk about "rewilding" in N. America. What an idea! Let's let wild elephants, lions, etc. loose to try and live on their own in the U.S. [ QUOTE ] The second, more controversial phase of Pleistocene rewilding would involve releasing small numbers of African elephants, cheetahs, and lions out of captivity onto private properties in the southwest. The challenge would be to give these animals large areas of habitat—and, in the case of carnivores, live prey. [/ QUOTE ] I got the above quote from: [ QUOTE ] [url]http://slate.msn.com/id/2124714/[/url] [/ QUOTE ] I can see it now... Long range lion hunting in N.M.! Do you think my 25-06 would work or should I go with a 300 Mag? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] This really doesn't have anything to do with hunting, but can you imagine cheetahs and lions roaming the Southwest? The antelope, deer and elk would definately be affected. [/QUOTE]
