MEXICO CITY – A study by Mexico’s top university has revealed that at least 800 species of wildlife will be adversely affected by President Trump’s planned 2,000-mile border wall with Mexico.
“The U.S.-Mexico border is made up of mountains, jungle, coastline and many other diverse ecosystems,” Professor Gerardo Ceballos, who led the investigation published last week, told Fox News. “Wildlife has populated these regions for millions of years, and has always had freedom of movement to hunt, reproduce and migrate. To make these animals suffer as a result of man’s political agenda is entirely immoral.”
Of the 800 species that will be affected by President Trump’s border wall, 140 are in danger of extinction, including the bald eagle, grey wolf, armadillo and jaguar, a big cat of which remain only 10 in the highlands of the Sonora Desert that straddle Arizona. Those animals whose range will be halved by the border wall’s construction will be impeded in their ability to reproduce with other members of their species, thereby creating a shallower gene pool and heightening the chance of inbreeding.
“It goes against the very principles of evolution that has created these amazing natural environments,” said Professor Ceballos, who has spent the last six months traveling the length of the border, from Tijuana to Texas.
“If the wall is being built to prevent illegal immigration from Mexico into the U.S., then there are more effective and less harmful ways of achieving this goal,” he said.
Research published by ecologists from the Mexican National Autonomous University has shown that an impassable physical barrier placed into ecosystems inhabited by jaguars, black bears and bighorn sheep will so disrupt patterns of migration as to cause a “natural catastrophe.”
. . . more at the link, it was a very long article.
If some species suffer, that will be another tragic outcome of illegal immigration.
I would like to know where those border jungles are. Certainly not along the New Mexico state line...
If the wall can stop the Mexican fever tick then it should have already been built.
and how many birds, especially eagles are killed by windmills?
How many PEOPLE have to die because the Mexican gov't is corrupt up to its sombreros with cartel drug money and will do nothing to enforce drug or people trafficking.
Can he please explain why Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi was allowed to suffer in a Mexican prison for over 200 days?
And the eagles? Really?!?!?!!?
No credibility can be given when they say an armadillo is endangered
Just proves, you can't fix stupid!!
1. Get a bank account/drivers license/etc..
2. Wire money.
3. Rent an apartment.....or ANYTHING.
4. Receive ANY kind of government benefit.
5. Fly
6. Have their kids in public..or any kind of school.
7. If they have to go to court (or any kind of government agency) ALL communication (written, oral, smoke signals, etc.) will be in english and english only. If they need a translator THEY will pay for it.
8. While we will not go knocking on doors, if they are stopped by an LEO for any reason and if they cannot show legal documentation then they will be deported post haste.
If we did this then we wouldn't need a wall as they will deport themselves. Make it impossible for them to exist here illegally. If you think about it, doing anything LESS than the above is basically telling them....."Well yeah, technically you're not supposed to be here, but you can stay anyway." (Wink wink, nudge nudge...)
And they will/are. They aren't stupid.
You know, make it like they were legal Americans who owe money to the IRS and have their bank accounts/Social Security/Medicare/property grabbed. Let's all be equal!
