The unspoken part of this is that the Plains states would have to be cleared of people.

Don't we already do this?

We call them "zoos", "wild animal parks", "the circus", "Michael Jackson's house"....

The introduction of lions and such to replace their extinct North American counterparts was actually a minor plot point in S.M. Stirling's sci-fi / alternate history novel Conquistador.

We'll just have to adapt.

What was once shoot, shovel and shutup will become shoot, skin and mount.

Can't wait to have Leo up there with all the Bambies.

"There has to be a pretty serious attitude shift on how you view predators."

Eating a PETA sandwich? Yes, now THAT would be a "veggie-burger".

Mounted?

Through a 4X scope?

As rugs?

As a source for Coats for Kids?

As an excuse to convince the wife I need a .50 BMG handgun?

Rug or trophy mount?

That would be nice mounted on the silo roof, in case the elephants get drunk on fermenting fruit.
