Surprisingly enough, I don't have a major argument with your statement.



I've been pondering the idea of bounties, and the big problem I can see off the bat is that John Q. Idjit is likely to start killing EVERY snake they see -- just in case it MIGHT be one of them pythons that they can git paid for. I'm not sure what would be a good way to get around that.



As for a bounty on cats and dogs, I think in a practical sense -- the good of the Everglades -- it might be a good thing. But, realistically speaking, you would NEVER get it passed because of all the legal, political, and emotional barriers involved. OTOH, I suppose it *might* be possible to get a "bounty" passed that pays for live-trapped dogs/cats rather than killed ones. Dunno!



Just some thoughts!
