Evidence is strong
Dr. Festa-Bianchet's work has now shown the same trends at multiple scales and in two provinces. The first work from Ran Mountain was criticized for being too local. So, he did what any good scientist does: he sought to replicate his results on independent data. Effects of hunting on horn growth were later established for BC, and now in AB again.
Time to accept the strong evidence, and time to do something about it. Or will we find other reasons to doubt the results??
