"If anyone out there is interested in the *actual* facts, rather than the somewhat mindless, souceless psuedo-facts"
What "psuedo-facts" have I presented? I will either back them up or withdraw them. Your cause will lose credibilty by claiming otters have benefits to the ecosystem with addressing the negative impact it has and then weighing those differences as to the value of the species in todays world. I may be ignorant but I'm not unable to objectively study and learn about the ecosystem. I care as much of not more then you about the ecosystem and it's future.
A question for you. When is enough enough or is there any limit in your mind? As far as protectionism goes and not just the otter species. When the protected species seemingly has a negative impact in the overall goal of increasing the resource in order to meet the ever growing human need?
