Because overpopulation is causing diseases to spread rapidly through the deer population here in Alabama, the state allowed archers to go crazy in the state parks to reduce the population (which for practical purposes makes sense, but ethically, I have issues with us deciding when other species populations are too big, but human population... oh-no, never too big). So why are Texas A&M researchers being applauded for cloning a deer? I could find a way to make kudzu spread faster... that wouldn't make me very popular here in the south.
