  • I read this article https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2024/10/01/clone-hybrid-sheep-montana-sentence/, it mentions it much later and I did miss the part that specified captive. But he also sold to a bunch of places, including private individuals and other breeders. It’s not hard to imagine that some will make it into the wild even from captive grounds. He was told not to do it specifically for this reason.

    In 2014, Schubarth petitioned the state of Montana to allow Marco Polo argali into the state, but officials denied the request due to the potential for disease transmission to native species and the risk of the species establishing feral populations.

    Schubarth sold 11 sheep with one-quarter of Montana Mountain King’s genetics for $13,200 total to two people in Texas, prosecutors said. He also traded one of that sheep’s offspring for $10,000 and sold dozens of straws of its semen to breeders in other states.

    I guess I’m at fault in this though. Looking at it, I imagine nothing gets bred and then released into the wild. I don’t know much about hunting since I consider it a disgusting hobby.


  • You guys are kind of missing my point and hyper focusing on the word here.

    There is nothing inherently dangerous about the word sidealley but if you’re at night with someone that is already fearful of the city and you tell them you are taking a sidealley, they might not be so willing.

    Someone that doesn’t know how to drive well will probably avoid the bumpy and confusing sideroads.

    The word has negative connotation and it’s use is benefiting Google. That’s my main point, maybe I should of used less safe instead of dangerous.
