re: Winner of Black Rhino Hunt Auction Threatened

Agree. I'm no fan of regulation either, although I don't disagree with some regulation for the protection of things we collectively enjoy (although obviously that is subject to abuse).

The best option is combining some degree of expansive regulation (animal protections, for example) with government/private collaboration to develop protected areas. Providing safe havens for delicate animal populations or ecosystems, especially when done with public-private collaboration, is something I can definitely get behind, as it may require less regulation applying to privately owned land. That too will ruffle some feathers (we all have opinions on Ducks Unlimited, Trout Unlimited, etc.) but I think it is still a good concept to pursue.
