I have a few "gentleman land owners" and near neighbors with PVC
contraptions fastened to trees filled with last nights Doritos that I
would gladly donate to the pond to help those alligators out.....

What would the consequences be if they were 'gone'? With all the crop damage and now Lyme (which has hit both my dogs and, probably, me), why put up with 'em? -Allan in WVI've read, and I have no reason to doubt, that there are far more deer in the North America now than there were before Europeans came. There are vast urban and rural areas now where it is not permissible to thin them. Not to mention the gentleman land owners that cultivate them for their supposed decorative value. We need more cougars! That would also do wonders for the un-kept pet and stray dog problems. Reminds me of an old joke. A couple of hippies living by a pond were bothered by frog croaking all through the night. Perhaps impaired from smoking dope, one went out and found an alligator and introduced it to the pond. Instant quiet. The other hippie was pleased with the results, but the mental haze cleared and he thought: "Yeah, we fixed those frogs. Now, all we have is ALLIGATORS." |
