As to TR's claim to be a conservationist, that is true insofar as his beliefs were concerned. But there were seriously defective origins to that common cultural mythos (and still are).

As to his understanding of ecological remedy, they extended only to megafauna he was fond of hunting (and to this day, I would say hunters have a better grip on the real problems of exotics and succession than most ecologists). He had no concept for what importing exotic species would do to the foundations of the food chain and as a culture, we still don't.

“He had no concept for what importing exotic species would do to the foundations of the food chain and as a culture, we still don’t.”

I can give him a pass for that then.

It’s the big government stuff. I have no toleration on that. No free passes for statism.

Thank you for the PDFs.
