![]() +1, the earth has been around a lot longer than we have, with many species going extinct long before we showed up. It's like global warming, we measure temperatures for a hundred years, notice it's going up, and say it's because of us. What about the other million's of years?

![]() It's not that we strip the ocean of fish but rather we destroy there environment in our techniques. When a dragline crosses the ocean floor it takes any and all in its path leaving a barren landscape. Fish then loose there food sorce and ability to reproduce

![]() Do you actually think that this resource is illimited?? Of course they could stip the entire ocean...and that's why quotas are imposed on fisheries.
And that's not going to improve since humans are growing in numbers each year...scary. Humans are the cause of the extinction of many species, either intentionally or not.

![]() Aquarium trade can drive a species out of extinction, especially if that species has limited range. Take Banggai Cardinal for example. It's "Endangered" on IUCN red list, thanks to aquarium trade.

![]() Oh my...you would think that since they are easily bred in captivity that would not happen
![]() http://en.microcosmaquariumexplorer....red_Endangered That's a very sad reading but at least some village habitants are reacting to protect them. If the locals are getting sensible about this, they may have a chance.

This was an article in Science now for May of 2003, there are 1000's of articles with countless hours of study put into them all detailing vastly similar results. Do yourself a favor and go do some scholarly searches on the topic prior to posting garbage like this. Ignorance is bliss and it also happens to be highly contagious. Quote:

![]() Hi,
I had to give my 2 cents. I have read that in the wild, even though clowns lay hundreds of eggs every couple of weeks for several years, they are lucky if 2 of their offspring live to become breeding adults. Not good odds. As with bangaii's, wild caught clowns are cheap for suppliers to buy making it hard for home breeders to break even, let alone make a profit. Making the scales tip against the clownfish was the movie finding nemo which saw every person seeing this movie go out and impulse buy a nemo of their own. It should be a great show to see the breeding side of it. |
