I am all for protecting and managing endangered and threatened species. What i am not for, is the emotional responses taking precedence over scientific facts about species considered endangered,the actual identification of a species and the way it should be protected. A note to consider is that banning all harvest of a certain species and its pray may help in some cases, species manengment and habitat management can do alot for not just one species but for a whole ecosystem. The mnrf and its public sponsers tend to look at nature through a wrapping paper tube, and not care to consider the big picture. We are just as much a part of nature as any other creature in the woods. Pretending we dont exist in the food chain such as protecting all harvest of a make believe , or a non issue species is not the way to change for the better. We can't ignore our obligations as stewards of the land.
