Default When is a bug too insignificant to survive ?

http://www.cnn.com/2006/TECH/science/01/06/rare.butterfly.ap/index.html

A single decent thunderstorm could easily annihilate their entire population in one day , so why protect them at all ? Another example of trying to legislate through the courts , but are they right ?




Your thoughts ?

Evolution at work- let them go.

This is how we fix this problem_

1. Find land or homes owned by highly paid heads of environmental activists groups.

2. find a critter, plant, or fungus on their property that may be rare in that area.

3. Sue the property owner to force them to vacate their property in order to protect this unique species.

4. lather, rinse, repeat.

Fairly common situation around my part of the country. The Edwards Plateau, and particularly the Balcones Escarpment abutting it are loaded with caves and sinkholes, most of them small. every bloody sinnkhole or cave has a species of blind cave vricket, or white harvestman, or some evolutionary dead end arrthripod living in it. Makes the environmental idiots slober and pant, because they want to have 50 to 100 acre buffer zones around each feature. Of course, they see themselves controling the property, not the "uninformed" land owner, or general public.

Not to mention the golden cheeked warbler, the Texas blind salamander, and the concho water snake.

The way things work under the Endangered Species Act, if you are a landowner, your incentive is not to conserve and protect the species. Your incentive is to eradicate them before others find out.

When a sub species( or another of the same with minor varations)is so specialized- it cant adapt to anychanges around them(man made or natural) it is not ment to survive.

Someone said once dolphins are very smart/maybe more so then humans- but yet they are at the mercy of there enviroments& there ownbodys limitations.

And they cant even make a peanutbutter& jelly sanwich
