I'm skeptical, and I'm far from a tree hugger. But I do know about the positive effect of logging, who knows, maybe the ecology of this could work out. I've spoken with DNR people before, population control (hunting) of animals is a good thing and they do make a shitload of money from licenses and tags. Hunters do NOT like poachers, so they are policed pretty well in the States. In a third world country it could easily be a fucking disaster.
