Environment & Energy

It is NOT the deer who are eating all the young sprouts! It would not have survived if the deer were doing this kind of damage. There is cattle grazing in that forest and it's the fucking COWS who eat the vegetation to the ground because that's what they do, especially when the livestock owner puts more than the allowed number of cows on their allotment. The exclosure, the fenced off area he showed early in the video, is from a study but it isn't to study the management of the deer, it's about keeping out everything, especially COWS.

The majority of destruction to our national forests, after humans via logging, mining, their atvs and other toys, is done by cows. Poor management of humans and their use of the land is the biggest threat to Pando and all other life on the planet.

We, as a species, need to manage ourselves not the environment around us.
