Tom,
I agree man…The “act of predation bite” may be post-mortem in an attempt to blame the reptile for something that a human did…Just a thought…Time will tell. My response was based on both the reaction of the media and the “without-a-thought” response from the HSUS…Kind of like a knee jerk reaction to carry the “storyline” of their agenda. After all, a alleged “tragedy” is an opportunity and a terrible thing to waste…
But hey, they can’t kick sand in the eyes of dog and cat owners (yet) as that would be a severe curtailment of funds (donations) for them to operate (and some of them would have to get a real job and truly “volunteer” their time)…And as a consequence, severely restrict the HSUS “message”…
If the HSUS (and any other 501c3 "dot.org" for that matter) is ever "subsidized" by the taxpayers...And they no longer need donations...That's when the "fur" will fly...Ha! Ha! Right now, even the HUGE philanthropic ORG's are having a tuff time financially...And as a consequence, not as much 501c3 money to donate via "grants"...So they're "roughing it" a bit these days. Speaking of taxpayer "subsidies", have you researched H.R. 1698 (Green Bank Act of 2009)...the government WILL provide taxpayer "subsidies" via this bank (can you say Cap and Trade-just the beginning-the bill is in the house ways and means committee right now)...This bill addresses the MAB issue of climate change (not specifically stated but if you read the MAP, you'll SEE it-it can be found in A.1. Climate Change) and we, the taxpayers, are already subsidizing the conservation elements(biodiversity, invasive species, habitat, etc) and have been for DECADES via the Department of the Interior and its agencies. Millions of tax dollars are being used to acquire private lands and place them under the "public" domain...
Endangered and threatened species is just the "propaganda" of the cover story for what they're really doing...Do you remember that map of the United States that appeared ca. 1996-7 showing the US divided up into core areas (no humans-except for sanctioned scientists, etc); buffer zones (government approved “activities”) and the transition areas (where the humans will live, work and play)? As a result of that map, the House passed H.R. 883 (American Land Sovereignty Act) and H.R. 901 (American Land Sovereignty Protection Act) - that curiously was not passed in the senate and President Clinton's minions testified before the house committee on resources that the President would VETO the bill if passed - and as a result of the negative publicity (they blame it on talk radio), the MAB in the US went underground...But it didn't go away...Agencies of the Interior Department (and numerous like-minded dot.org's) have been quietly implementing since then...And still are today.
In other words, the USMAB (it is a US program) has adopted the "tenets" of UNESCO's MAB...All you have to do is compare the Madrid Action Plan (MAP) to say what the USFWS is doing with their state grants...The MAP specifies the use of "zonation" (core area, buffer zone and transition area) terminology and when you read the state grant funding write ups for each FY state “grant” from the USFWS...You'll SEE the SAME terminology...Core, buffer, corridors, linkages, connectivity, etc...Of note hear is that CALIFORNIA receives the OVERWHELMING lion share of these tax dollars…And curiously, these tax dollars go into a LOT of the congressional districts of many of these same professional politicians, who in return, receive very favorable press from the same “dot.org’s when they run for reelection…but there’s no “quid-pro-quo” here at all…So the dot.org’s get taxpayer dollars for their agenda…The government implements it and the wheel goes round and round…It’s been going on for decades.
You'll SEE the "partnership" between the government and a "private" dot.org’s called the The Nature Conservancy, time and time again. Of note here is that the MAP specifies using "partners" (the TNC is even listed within the MAP itself) in local, regional, national, etc efforts in its implementation...Curiously, in the press releases that are disseminated to the media, none of the names of these "partners" are ever listed...You just SEE terminology such as "stakeholder(s)". Every time you SEE this terminology used (or hear it) in the media, now you'll know that this is code speak...I've been reading this terminology of "stakeholder" (private dot.org, NGO, government agency, etc), "decisionmaker" (government agency-after the bill is passed into law-they promulgate the regulations), "policymaker" (professional politician that votes to support special interests and "sells" the agenda on election day), etc, etc, etc. These terms have been in use for decades...
What’s absolutely absurd in this is reading the “press releases” from the senators and members of congress regarding the “appropriations” of tax dollars to protect species, habitats, biodiversity, etc via the “grants”…Now that I know I just have to laugh at their emperor’s clothing! Ha! Ha! Some of these Habitat Conservation Plans (HCP) have been going on in the SAME areas for five years…The money just keeps rolling in.
Later,
Jim.
