Yes, global warming is true, but...

I hate to tell everyone this, but global warming has occured before. It occured before the last Ice Age and the one before it and the one before it... Uneducated people are all falling into the Gore trap of believing this is the first time it has happened and it is going to not be the end of the world. People forget all the hype in the 70's about the mini Ice Age we were going through! After an Ice Age global warming takes place. Once the earth reaches a certain point mother nature reacts and draws us back into an Ice Age. During all these cycles some animals die off, others evolve, and some new ones are created. This is the way mother nature handles things. We as humans have the capability of adapting very well. Also we have a nasty habit of trying to stop mother nature from killing off species! We have the ability to take wild animals that are dying off and breeding them in captivity, releasing the young, and repopulate some areas. Yes we as humans are the ones who destroyed these animals natural habitats and/or hunted them to extinction. Sorry that is the way the world goes and for every creature we save what other creatures that may have begun to develop do we wipe out by bringing their preditor or competitor for food back. It is all a nasty circle that we as humans should let mother nature handle instead of us. If we want exotic pets and want to play with genes in a controlled environment then they should stay in captivity. The killer bee (Not the ball Python morph! I mean the real thing.) was the result of an accidental releast of a science project gone wrong or right depending on who you talk to. Also many species we now have her in the US running wild where imported into the country. Take the wild mustang for example. The actual American horse died out back in early BC. The wild mustang we have today were horses brought here by settlers from Europe that accidentally or purposefully were released for various reasons. Do we now hunt down the Wild Mustang and kill them off or take them to zoo's. No they are now a protected animal in Nevada as well as some other states I believe.

As you can tell any driving force that develops behind this will be due to uneducated people who believe they have the right to step on Herpers rights to raise enjoy and study various species of animals in captivity.
