and turn it all back to its natural state. Give me a break. It's issues like this where our ideological rigidity has cost us voters out here. Grizzly bears, wolves etc. are a success story of the ESA, but we simply can't let their populations grow unmitigated as long as there's people in the ecosystem. Why is a grizzly more valuable than a mule deer, an elk, a person? Seems a silly question to have to ask.
