I wonder how the pioneering efforts of Shiras moose has succeeded?  Or n0t.  Not much word on them,  and no concern from the OregonWild folks.  Moose do not meet their funding appeal goals.

And they are strangely silent on barred owl shooting,  now way more than 700 owls killed.  Pioneering owls displacing spotted owls is not permitted in NSP country because?  Barred owls are not "respecting nature?"

The hypocrisy of the whole surrogates for land use decisions animal and plant protection industry is appalling.  Now we will have to hear the moans from lumber users who have to pay more for lumber from Canadian "crown timberlands",  which are used to promote the Canadian lumber industry and employ Canadians and immigrants to Canada.  Talk to a Canadian timber worker and they will tell you that they have way more timber than markets for it.  And they also have vast preserves.  Oh,  and over 28 million acres of beetle killed pine.  Oregon has a total of 28 million acres,  extant.
