Hi Mike,
I'm alarmed at what these guys are doing also, its absolute madness and
shows they have little regard for and very little understanding of our
environment. A quick look at Flora & Fauna Guarantee

objectives of the act are below and one must ask how do any of these
objectives fit in with open slather wood collecting in our forests?
