I think Ed's first post sums it up. I live in a state where the native people hunted whale and green sea turtles. Now that practice is not allowed, but the native people still hunt green sea turtles. These people in Asia have been eating turtles for centuries. Often, like where I live, its the outside pressure on the animals, not the actual people that put them into decline. I would like to see a petition against large multi national corporations and their impact on wildlife, Government and its impact on corporate legislation before taking the this issue with the native people.
