African animals to roam Australia ?
Invurt writes: "In a strange twist to the traditional conservation story, Media Magnate Kerry Packer has announced that he is planning to open a huge African game reserve, for reasons of conservation and endangered species breeding in Australia. This would basically replicate Africa in the Australian continent, on a huge scale. They are not sure if they'd leave the kangaroos there or not - always wondered what it'd be like with kangaroos roaming the plains with lions."
I'm sure it won't work as intented. We all know what happened with rabbits, right?

And besides, we all have seen "Jurassic Park", didn't we?

I think I speak for all Australians when I say:
"Kerry, you are a fucking idiot!"
Everything he touches turns to shit, whether it's TV networks, airlines, or now the whole fucking ecosystem.
Netcraft has confirmed: African animals roaming in Australia is dying Yet another crippling bombshell hit the beleaguered African animals roaming in Australia community when recently IDC confirmed that African animals roaming in Australia accounts for less than a fraction of 1 percent of all servers. Coming on the heels of the latest Netcraft survey which plainly states that African animals roaming in Australia has lost more market share, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along.

Red ink flows like a river of blood. FreeBSD is the most endangered of them all, having lost 93% of its core developers. Let's keep to the facts and look at the numbers. OpenBSD leader Theo states that there are 7000 users of OpenBSD. How many users of NetBSD are there? Let's see. The number of OpenBSD versus NetBSD posts on Usenet is roughly in ratio of 5 to 1. Therefore there are about 7000/5 = 1400 NetBSD users. BSD/OS posts on Usenet are about half of the volume of NetBSD posts. Therefore there are about 700 users of BSD/OS. A recent article put FreeBSD at about 80 percent of the African animals roaming in Australia market. Therefore there are (7000+1400+700)*4 = 36400 FreeBSD users. This is consistent with the number of FreeBSD Usenet posts. Due to the troubles of Walnut Creek, abysmal sales and so on, FreeBSD went out of business and was taken over by BSDI who sell another troubled OS. Now BSDI is also dead, its corpse turned over to yet another charnel house. All major surveys show that African animals roaming in Australia has steadily declined in market share. African animals roaming in Australia is very sick and its long term survival prospects are very dim.

What do you reckon is on this land then..? I think the hippos are just something to hide behind.. the lions are to keep people from snooping. He's building a secret shuttle launching facility? Nuclear weapons experiments? There are opals there? Perhaps it *is* Jurrasic Park?
Damn, I spoke too soon. Here it is after all.

You make some excellent points on why you believe you are less important and are threatening to the survival of Sumatran Tigers. I humbly suggest you follow through on your convictions and feed yourself to one right away.
unfortunately hunting won't work, at least where i am. the deer are in a heavily populated area, and so hunting would not be so good, there are apartment complexes all around the deer areas. the only solution would be wolves or some other natural predator, of course then instead of hitting deer on the way home from work, i'd be hitting wolves, or the joggers they are chasing into the road.
