Boeier's Journey: While we've been busy with nesting sea turtles Boeier been busy too, so here's an update for Boeier (Diergaarde Blijdorp / Rotterdam Zoo).
Our last report we reported that Boeier moved from just off the beach across from San Antonio Bay, just south of Surfside/Freeport.

Klopt, zoals het nu gebracht wordt is het kansloos. Maar ja, met de BBB is het een kansloze missie om maar iets aan natuurbehoud te doen. Headstart kan alleen in combinatie met tal van andere maatregelen. Daarom werkt bv het bijplaatsen van de korenwolf ook haast niet.

Op zich is een headstart programma niet gek, maar dan wel met alle randvoorwaarden inclusief een natuur waar de dieren zich thuisvoelen. Anders kweek je voor de eer van de politici en de roofdieren
