Note that the polar bear is no longer the ‘global warming’ media darling- the Caribou is now the mascott- Have read reports declaring that global warmign is causing massive die offs of Caribou (Apparently, Caribou were not able to weather past cyclical warmign events that were worse than what we recently experienced?”) All of a sudden, Caribou are apparently entirely dependent upon man for hteir survival, and just will never be able to adjust to any climate change ‘unlesswe act now’ (by pumping trillions of dollars into an issue we will NEVER be able to ‘fix’ because it’s entirely a natural cyclical process.

Evidently, the poor Caribou are being tortured by mosquitos because the thaw comes a couple of days earlier because hte climate went htrough a warmign trend, and by golly, we’re to blame, and apparently, grass is greenign up ealier, and hte caribou aren’t makign it to feedign grounds in time for ‘the best grass’, and so they aren’t having as many calves, and by golly, we’re to blame.

One has to wonder how these poor caribou- so delicate, so unable to fend for themselves, EVER made it through past global warmign events without the help of man, that had absolutely NOTHING to do with man? All of a suddent they’ve becoem so delicate and needy that they can’t fend for themselves ?

” the Caribou is now the mascott- Have read reports declaring that

One of my favorite “global warming killing animals” photos: the one
showing the sizeable herd of caribou lounging near an drilling rig
in Alasks!!!

And I recall having read reports and seen photos of caribou hanging around the Alaskan pipeline in groups, in the dead of winter, TO KEEP WARM from the heat generated in the pipes.

These libs need to stop trying to use Walt Disney tactics to sell their lies...next they'll be saying that a teapot told them that the ice was melting...what maroons.

The comments about caribou reminded me of the article by Anne Coulter "Nine out of 10 Caribou support drilling". Here is an excerpt. I am sure I posted this article on Free Republic years ago but cant seem to find it in search.

"When oil exploration began in Alaska's Prudhoe Bay 30 years ago, environmentalists claimed it would yield only a "few months' supply" of oil and would wreck the ecosystem. Prudhoe Bay turned out to be the largest deposit of oil ever found in North America. Caribou frolic and play by the pipeline. In 20 years, the caribou population has skyrocketed, from 3,000 to almost 27,100."

I found a link to an archive of the article here.

The enviro-whackos don't seem to understand that...circle-of-life thingy.

Animals die. Humans die. Sometimes in great numbers. It's the nature of nature. Get used to it. Get over it.
Not every animal (or every human for that matter) is meant to or deserves to die of old age.

Was that after someone caught the cute little darlings chowing down at the seal buffet—looking like the Canadians at clubbing time?
