Gee, if they wait long enough, the roos will continue to breed, overgraze the entire range and all die of starvation. Nice and natural, that.

Why is no "animal rights" org out there demanding the protection of all the animals that will die when the roos eat all the food?

Because it is perfectly morally acceptable for any animal except humans to kill off other animals by predation or starvation or any other means.

Every now and again some tourist at one of these wildlife viewing places sees a sea lion or something obtaining dinner in the most natural way possible. A certain subset of these tourists find this shocking.

Jack and I were tromping around the woods in Northern Wisconsin yesterday afternoon. At one point when nature was calling and I was squatting to relieve myself I noticed a half eaten something a few feet from me. My first thought was not repulsion *** rather that something out there had himself a good meal. Such is nature.

Oh, and damn nature. This morning Jack found a fat healthy wood tick on the back of my shoulder. The little bugger was dug in quite comfortably, but we managed to remove it.
