[QUOTE="Deleted member 107796, post: 1567098"] I just saw a news article about 5 mountain lions being put down in the Glenwood Springs Co, over the loss of one pet. The critter cam shown in the article was near the house that was clearly in the forest area, outside of the city. My opinion is, if you live in or near the forest, either live with what is there or get out. If I looked around and saw something else besides humans and domesticated animals, I might have a different opinion. If I saw humans do the same to nuisance humans, instead of house them and feed them for life, I might have a different opinion. The forest service is just putting themselves out of business, when they blindly follow a "every human life, and what they own, is sacred" senselessness. My feelings were reinforced when I read Townshend Whelen's Two Volumes of hunting in the Americas and Asia/Africa. All of the stories, all great stories, ended as tragedies, as each hunter lamented that the number of hunted animals was dwindling right before their eyes, in clear terms and without doubt. The need to betray its' own environment, for whatever reason, is why I find human ignorance, the worst in all species. We can do better. [/QUOTE]
