What happens when 30,000 mink are abruptly set free? It's not going to be pretty.
@gcupc Sure. You just need 150,000 miles of appropriate habitat.
Near a road.
Something is bugging me about that plan.
@pzmyers Well, obviously I mean lots of different roads in parallel. But yes, it's a formidably huge task that no one is actually going to do.
@pzmyers Oy. I know if this were near me, and a mink killed one of my cats, I'd go apeshit. Thankfully Texas isn't exactly a hot spot for mink farming.
@pzmyers Jeez, what the hell can you safely do with 30,000 minks? Drive down a highway through appropriate habitat, releasing one every five miles?
