Next you are going say you own a rescue so you know what it takes to mount large scale relocation/adoption efforts in crisis areas.

If I had lottery winnings or even had no financial difficulties myself, you'd be right to ask me what I am going to do instead. That is not the case. I'm not disagreeing with what they are TRYING to do and I believe I made that abundantly clear.

I am not deserving of attack for merely pointing out the difficulties and your snide comment toward me is inappropriate.

I'm not attacking you. I'm explaining that whatever good happens MineralMan May 2018 #5

Again you attack me for describing the complexities not criticizing the effort itself. hlthe2b May 2018 #6

Great glad you own a rescue animal. That is NOT participating in rescue relocation efforts. hlthe2b May 2018 #11

As I said, and as you missed, MineralMan May 2018 #14
