Why, when they say they are low on funds?

You'd think they'd avoid any new projects and worry about finances.

Fishers are one of the few predators that regularly kill and eat porcupines.

Could it be, that the PGC is on another mission to save the trees. They seem really concerned about Timber, I mean trees.

Of all the game animals that could use funding ( pheasants, rabbits, grouse ) they choose to reintroduce another predator.
