That said, again I'll ask - is the validity of what constitutes a red wolf - scientific integrity - the real issue, or is it merely a tool to use to oppose the program - would yall oppose a bat, shrew, cougar ESA protected species reintroduced to the area?
thanks!
I certainly don't speak for everyone here, but I believe the argument is that you can't restore an animal that you can't prove lived here in the first place. Regardless of any map, I bet everyone would agree that some type of dog lived here long ago. However, if you can't prove which one did, you don't get to make one up in a zoo and release it.
