You could use Caribou or Grizzly bears for your example. See how that works.


Much more importantly....

Are you seriously making an argument that the present harvesting rights are OK because the government might curtail treaty harvest when the animals are declared Endangered?
I am saying the government has its disposal right now the ability to manage the resources so they do not fall below sustainable numbers. The species does not have to be declared endangered.
