"It's why I've released my complete pride of lions Tom.. I sincerely hope not I’ve got enough problems with foxes and badgers in my garden " Well as it happens you may not have shortly.. Although I like both of those creatures, a hungry lion is a hungry lion.. Joking aside I hope some people don't panic and start dumping their cats.. Not a cat fan but if they're a house cat they will struggle.. | |||

"is this really helpful? " Does it matter? It's a subject matter people are commenting on. The post above you had me giggling. If you think Fab is all about things that matter (to you), you're in the wrong place. If you want just virus info then stick to NHS website or dot gov one. Relax, put your feet up, have a cuppa | |||

"I am a conservationalist as much as the next man but would it be a disaster if these buggers were wiped out..the jungles would be much safer for one thing and the antelopes etc would thrive .. " Yes the loss of apex preditors can have massive, and sometimes complex, detrimental impact on the environment. Probably the best example of this is Yellowstone National Park in the US. The wolves were hunted to extinction and this allowed the elk population to grow out of control leading to overgazing and gradual loss of tree and shrub coverage and massive drop in beaver population. The reduction in beaver numbers then had knock on effects for human populations downstream of the park in terms of increased flooding risk. Since wolves have been reintroduced the ecosystem is gradually pulling back into balance. The wolve control the elk numbers, trees then get a chance to grow, allowing beaver numbers to increase and resumme there work creating ponds etc and flooding from this rain catchment area has been reduced. | |||

"says the woman prepared to put her family at risk for an easter meet up" What has that to do with anything she said, snide jibe there. Its documented that the genetic pool is dwindling amongst animals causing sickness and weaknesses to viruses allowing them to become easily infected than they would with healthier bodies. The fact that humans decrease wildlife populations to low numbers shrinks the gene pool breeding in genetic mutations that would cause immune weaknesses. The closer the genetic relation the sicker an animal will be down the line of genetics. Only have to take a look at pedigree dogs to see that. Terms of genetics and viruses black and tan breeds such as rottweilers and dobermans the gene coding that produces black and tan coat inhibits the production of antibodies for parvo virus, no matter how many vaccinations the dog receives. If it wasnt for the gene that produces black and tan dogs they would benefit from vaccinations for parvo. Humans killing off significant numbers of wildlife especially in a focused area destroys available genepools. | |||

"Confusing post on meets. I wonder if animals in captivity are kept in smaller spaces in captivity and closer proximity causing more chance of disease. I will never forget the tiger that I saw in captivity forever patrolling his small perimeter. Some admired and swooned. I just preyed that the keepers had not made a mistake or got complacent with the doors. Set them all free in the wild is my motto. Too dangerous to keep them near cities. If there is an escape a small child or adult could be eaten or poisoned. " Stress induces disease and even death. Animals weren't meant to be in cages. For some species their chance of survival depends on captivity but that is only down to humans taking over their environment and hunting them. If it wasn't for that they wouldn't need to be kept in captivity. A lot of species that are critically endangered most people know nothing about. Just like the pygmy hog, it hasn't been successful in trying to breed them in captivity. There are approximately 200 adult pygmy hogs left and humans taking away habitat and hunters poaching them, other animals preying on them have left this population of animals on the brink for decades. Captivity won't save this species it will disappear just as the Tasmanian tiger did, the last known animal captured and lived it's last days caged than in the wild. Irony of it all their prey was kangaroo and wallabies and people complain about over population when nature had it in balance. Yellowstone reintroduced wolves and balance was restored to the whole ecology but sadly there will be no reintroduction of the Tasmanian tiger it's gone, it's extinct! Humans are to blame. Elephants faced extinction and humans forced evolution. Could you ever have imagined a man made evolution just by chance in a matter of decades not millennias? These animals poached for their ivory left tuskless ones to breed and now the species will thrive because they no longer have tusks. | |||

" And there you have the quandary. Many of the zoo's have their breeding programmes to ensure the species survives. Longer term it would be good to be able to release them back into the wild, but they need to be conditioned to that behaviour. Can't help thinking that sometimes species are being kept alive for human amusement/achievement rather than ecological benefit. | |||

These villagers living in straw huts on the edge of the jungle currently dont have any jobs money or food. Its a win win as a new food source for both sides and survival of the fittest.
