COWBOY LOGIC

This was ACTUALLY proposed to the Montana Wool and
Sheep Grower's Association by the Sierra Club and the
United States Forest Service. Hard to argue with this logic.

A few years ago, the Sierra Club and the US Forest Service
were presenting an alternative to Montana ranchers for
controlling the coyote population. It seems that after years
of the ranchers using the tried and true methods of
shooting and/or trapping the predator, the tree-huggers had
a 'more humane' solution. What the Sierra Club proposed
was for the animals to be captured alive, the males
castrated and let loose again, and the population would
be controlled.

All of the ranchers mulled over this 'amazing' idea for a
couple of minutes.

Finally, an old boy in the back stood up, tipped his hat back,
and said, "Son, I don't think you understand the problem.
Those coyotes ain't fuckin' our sheep -- they're eatin' 'em."
