An investment has to be made, but afaik, it pays dividends. <br /><br />"Yellowstone Wolves Help Trees Rebound, Study Says" http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/01/02/study-yellowstone-wolves-trees_n_1179440.html<br /><br />IMHO, biomass is a seriously underutilized renewable resource. Pyrolysis is heating it in an anaerobic environment. A lot of folks think it's a carbon negative source for biofuels and biochar. Biofuels from biomass aren't perfect, but they're an improvement over fossil fuels and biofuels from corn. <br />John Caspernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5888314760091661875.post-3401208122170867652012-11-27T06:15:48.693-06:002012-11-27T06:15:48.693-06:00My biggest concern has been that the hunt has the ...My biggest concern has been that the hunt has the potential of screwing up the hierarchy of packs. There is an Alpha male and An Alpha female. If one of those is shot or trapped, the pack is without leadership and without a breeding pair. Wolves have a highly structured system. Losing either Alpha can be problematic.Ed Hammerhttp://wisconsinriveroutfitters.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5888314760091661875.post-422201453983608702012-11-27T06:06:19.581-06:002012-11-27T06:06:19.581-06:00You're both very correct.
