ToDaZeD Cow Flop
literally
Here they come again. “Get offa my public land! that you pay for with your tax dollars butthat’snotimportantnow”
Note how the SacBee accepts without question the allegations set forth.
Each summer, on hiking trips into the high Sierra, [director of the emergency room at the UC Davis Medical Center, Robert Derlet] brought that curiosity along, asking himself: Where do you get infections in the wilderness? The most obvious possibility, he believed, was the water.
Now, after 10 years of fieldwork and 4,500 miles of backpacking, Derlet knows for sure. ...
Nowhere is the water dirtier, he discovered, than on U.S. Forest Service land, including wilderness areas, where beef cattle and commercial pack stock – horses and mules – graze during the summer months.
The bear, mule deer, elk, fox, cougar, bob cat, badger, weasel, beaver, ringtail cat, coyote, gray squirrel were unavailable for comment. Let’s hear from the skunk again:
Derlet and Charles Goldman, director of the UC Davis Tahoe Research Center, to mount a publicity campaign calling for dramatic management change in the Sierra. Cattle, they say, should be moved to lower elevations. And Forest Service areas where they now graze should be turned into national parks.
Really? The waters were pristine back in the Bonanza days? Ya don’t say? And the
"At one time, cattle were important for developing civilization here,” said Derlet. “But now, with 40 million people in California, the Sierra is not for cattle. It’s for water. We need water more than Big Macs."
“Big Macs” Well, maybe you metrosexxxuals hippies Watermelon Greenies can do with out the plebian Big Macs—or even the delicious rib eye—but can you do without all the other things that come from the beef industry?
