A speciesist attack on grey squirrels

“This programme fails to question the anthropocentric and speciesist campaign against grey squirrels despite:
‘There is no evidence that grey squirrels aggressively chase out red squirrels or interfere with their mating behaviour. Nor do greys eat hazel nuts before the reds – both species will feed on them while green in north of England. Furthermore, both species have the same breeding potential.’ Review of red squirrel conservation activity in northern England (NECR019), p8, Natural England , 2009.
Why are grey squirrels blamed for coin-sized scars on beech trees when bypasses, runways, HS2, drift mines ravage ancient forests?
Why are they not given credit for growing trees by the million by planting acorns, hazelnuts and beech mast?
Why should grey squirrels be interfered with because of a perceived problem caused by human interference in the past?”

“Awesome content! If you listen closely those for GMO’s only “believe” in the benefits of these crops... my personal gripe with GMO’s is that there’re no human trails... oh wait! We are the human trail...”
