It's a shameOct 11th, 2007 - 23:49:43

It's a shame that any animal might be endangered, but if they have brought back species like Bald Eagles and Panda Bears then I am sure they could bring back Tasmanian devils if they want to.

Breeding them with Pit Bulls will stabilize the Devil population and create an instant revenue maker when we market the new cross breed to inner-city low lifes and their trailer trash kin.

We can save them. Remember the danger of the Buffolo? We bred them and now they thrive. We saved the species from extinction and now we eat them. We can save Taz.
