OT: Article about Wolverines resurgence

Good article in the seattle times about the resurgence of the wolverines.  Talks about their persecucion, struggles, and steady climb back to relevancy.  

http://seattletimes.com/html/localnews/2020260612_wolverinereturnxml.html  

Do Something. If it works, do more of it. If it doesn't, do something else.

I'm pretty certain he was trying to be muddy on purpose, considering that he also mentioned the wolverines' "return to relevancy", which is not something you'd say about wild animal populations.  we've been trolled!  however, as a zoologist, I actually read the article anyway cuz I think animals are fascinating.  so ...

The video might be awesome, but the people that took it obviously had no idea of the danger into which they were putting themselves.  The condescending, "oh, isn't he cute" tone of voice tells me that they were utterly clueless, and lucky they haven't picked up a "Darwin Award" yet.
