Calls for reintroduction may be premature, since it seems the jackrabbits may not actually be locally extinct after all!Its funny how many of us accepted the conclusions of the paper and ran with the “cautionary tale” perhaps because it fits so nicely with our conservation paradigms (sorry – I almost said frames there!) – yet all Berger (and the rest of us) had to do was to ask ordinary people who live in the area if they’d seen the jackrabbits! How often, and why, do we forget that?
