Thread: Thar extermination

Writing to MPs is a start, and one that needs to be done. But the next step is a big one....

How do we make sure this lot are OUT at the next election?

I doubt we will be able to stop all support but a proper campaign showing the environmental damage that the green party is responsible for would be a start. And we know they will go to bed with labour first chance they get so do we try get the other mob in? The way I see it, we need to get the green support down low enough that they are of no real help to forming a govt. They are a minor party with a small support base.

Secondly

Point out to them that Tahr are on the International Union for Conservation of Nature list of animals that are NEAR ENDANGERED. This means

that may be considered threatened with extinction in the near future, although it does not currently qualify for the threatened status. The IUCN notes the importance of re-evaluating near-threatened taxa at appropriate intervals.

The rationale used for near-threatened taxa usually includes the criteria of vulnerable which are plausible or nearly met, such as reduction in numbers or range. Near-threatened species evaluated from 2001 onwards may also be ones which are dependent on conservation efforts to prevent their becoming threatened

So wiping out Tahr in NZ is pushing this amazing animal far closer to extinction which is NOT what conservation is about. The largest threat to its extinction is mankind actions- Reducing habitats, Over hunting it is original enviroment do gooders with no idea using choppers. The Greens actively support 1080, do you think that when they learn that helicopter hunting doesn't work they might think to sprinkle green rain on the snow?

They call themselves Greens, and 1080 is green. If we keep making that association the world will see that our green movement is one of the biggest polluters in our country. If you see a picture of a green party emblem or person, make sure the next picture you show next to it is 1080 pellets....If you say something often enough people will believe it - Its called advertising.
