not to mention ridiculous in the extreme
releasing non native species into the wild is the single most destructive possible act a person can commit against their native ecosystem. forget about poor mr mink getting eaten by that naughty barn owl (implausible at best-mink would RAPE a barn owl) and think about the consequences of introducing a hardy, top predator into an already unstable ecosystem. fucks with waterfowl populations, smaller rodents, ie endangered water voles, dormice, nesting birds, you name it, they'll kill it. then there's the issue of introducing new diseases into native populations.. look at what the grey squirrels have done to the reds, look what rats did to flightless birds all over the pacific islands, look what damage bloody japanese knotweed did here. it's irresponsible, and if these scruffy tie-die wearing patchouli smelling fuckin do-gooders spent more time at school learning than sitting in a fuckin tree house planning the demise of 'the establishment maaaaaan' they'd know this.
