The loons on the left will tell you how man is destroying the the planet… and we are killing off all the animals, but do they tell you about the ones that are discovered… oh it’s reported it’s just rarely in the news so let’s have a look at what is found verses what is threatened according to the loons and we’ll even cover protect introduced species at the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars of your money.
I’m sure you’ve heard about the California Delta Smelt… you know that little fish that they are starving the farmers of waters so to, as the loony left environmentalist claim not to endanger? 10′s of 1000′s of farmers who have farmed their land for generation can no long do so do to a lack of water thanks to these loons and the Delta Smelt.
Then we have the poor pitiful polar bears… which have actually increased in population over the last few years. The linked article says…
Despite global warming, an ongoing study says polar bear populations are rising in the country’s eastern Arctic region.
Well how is that possible with global warming and all… I guess global warming is a hoax.. not that scientist would lie.
But here’s the deal… something I’ve seen over and over for the past year is obscure rare reports of not one, but thousands of new species discovered… on a planet that nearly every inch has been inhabited or explored there are still 1000′s of creatures we’ve never seen until recently. Now keep in mind long before humans ever took there first step upright 99.99% of every species had already gone extinct. 1,000,000′s of 1,000,000′s of species fish, insects, primates, mammals, bacteria, dinosaurs, birds and on and on… and it is estimated 1000′s of species go extinct every year, many before every discovered by man, but bet your ass the loons will blame man for the extinction of animals not yet discovered.
So let’s have a look at what’s been found in the past year or so…
Every cloud there is a silver lining…
‘Outlandish’ Creatures Found Living Deep in the Ocean
The researchers have found about 5,600 new species on top of the 230,000 known. They hope to add several thousand more by October 2010, when the census will be done.
But wait there is more from the jungles of New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, Kenya and Sulawesi…
New Creatures in an Age of Extinctions
And this is just mammals alone…
an astounding 400 or so new species have been added to the list. “Most people don’t realize this,” he said, “but we are smack-dab in the middle of the age of discovery for mammals.”
But wait some more there is still more…
Tiny Deer, Flying Frog Among 350 New Species Found in Himalayas
The world’s smallest deer, a flying frog and catfish that stick to rocks — as well as more than 350 other new species — have been discovered over the past decade in the Himalayas
But we’re not done yet… oh no.
Lost world of fanged frogs and giant rats discovered in Papua New Guinea
A team of scientists from Britain, the United States and Papua New Guinea found more than 40 previously unidentified species when they climbed into the kilometre-deep crater of Mount Bosavi
Still there is more…
Photos: treasure trove of new species discovered in Ecuador
The team found 11 new species during the RAP (Rapid Assessment Program) that are considered threatened globally.
Note this article.. ‘we’ just found them and they are already threatened… how do they know? They just found them, what were they before we found them.. extincted? Typical liberal bullcrap! Claiming a animal is threatened that they just found and have ZERO population history on… this is one of the many reason I never believe anything the environmental alarmist says.
Still more…
Five New Pygmy Seahorse Species Found
The Walea pygmy seahorse is one of five species named in a flurry of recent seahorse discoveries from coral reefs in the Red Sea and Indonesia.
And yet still more…
Many New Species Discovered In Hidden Mozambique Oasis
they found a wealth of wildlife, including three new species of butterfly and an undiscovered species of adder. The scientists believe there are at least two novel species of plant and perhaps more new insects to identify.
Just in case that is not enough here are a few more…
New plant discovered in the Philippines is a giant rat-eating plant!
137 New Plant Species Discovered
Rare Plant Thought Extinct Re-discovered in Upstate New York
168 new plant species discovered in Greater Mekong
And these is just a few of the discoveries reported in the last couple of years… and we are wringing our hands over the San Fransisco Bay Delta Smelt… granted everything deserves to live.. but you don’t do it at the peril of you’re own species. Besides can’t they put screens over the pumps so they don’t suck the little fish in them… just saying, a little common sense goes a long way.
So the next time some WWF, Sierra Club, NATGEO or Discovery Channel shows whines about the hoax global warming and how many are killing off all the animals.. ask them “then if that’s true where are all the new ones coming from?”
Then there is this sham…
My own Representative Ed Whitfield voted to fund the American Wild Horse H.R. 1018 at the tune of $700,000,000.00… there is one problem with that… well actually there is 700 million problems, there is no such thing as the American Horse… horses were introduced into North America by Spanish in the 1500′s! The North American horse went extinct about 8000-10,000 years ago… I blame global warming and George Bush. But the wild horse in America today are ferrell horses, just like wild pigs in North America were introduced by Spanish as are the Norway rat, danilon, sparrow, kudzu vine, black bird, starling, red fox, European hare and about 10,000 others critters and plants introduced into North America are we spending million to protect them?
No … why because there range is on top of the largest shale oil reserves in the world… which the wild horse are thus putting the ability to drill there off limits.
I’ve asked Whitfield when we are going to spend millions to protect the wild kudzu vine, introduced just as the horses… I’m still waiting for an answer.
