Arizona: Kofa mountain lions: How exploiters get what they want and attempt to silence (or eliminate) dissent *LINK* *PIC*

Check out Ron Kearns' timeline, which is a great lesson in how exploiters get what they want and attempt to silence (or eliminate) dissent.

Ron Kearns emailed me today with a timeline that he wrote up last night regarding the Mountain Lions at the Kofa NWR. This is important, because it outlines the history of the lions on the refuge, or more specifically where the confirmed knowledge starts, and it also gives a sense of the overall situation. The actions that have been taken by the agencies, the unethical and perhaps illegal things that the agencies have done. The process by which the agencies are bound tends to be very confusing, which is part of Ron’s motivation in writing up this timeline. That confusion is what the refuge managers have depended on, I believe, to make sure that average people who don’t deal with the process day in and day out won’t catch on to the many questionable decisions made and actions taken.
