I once asked a conservationist "If a decline in the number of the world's species is a problem, then why don't we just make more species?"

They had no logically consistent answer to my question.

"The alleged Extinction Crisis is but a component of the multibillion-dollar climate scam". (Vic Jurskis).

Although clearing and logging SUPPOSEDLY threatens native animals, the biggest extinction problem is feral cats, according to the Invasive Species Council.

Most of Australia's extinctions occurred/occur in arid zones where there are no forests and no clearing. Just cats.

As for the political solution by Labor, locking up 30% of Australia - the 'Lock It Up and Let It Burn' method - Black Summer saw these mismanaged parks go up in flames, killing millions of native animals and people also died or lost their homes.

Don't expect a political 'solution' by Labor, or the other mob, who have claimed that Labor pinched their plan!

Don't forget rats have a place too, be it the dodo or trees on Easter Island. Mice have not been good for sea bird populations either. And trying to poison them can be disastrous for predatory birds.
