Yeah Ecology research worldwide is a few billion and the US alone spends $500 billion dollars a year in peace time on military spending.

Ecology is incredibly important because ecology determines the carrying capacity of the planet and our continued ability to support our population. Even these unassuming things can have a major impact. That's how ecology works, remove one thing and it comes crashing down.

Take an ecology class and stop being and ignorant and arrogant asshole

@sonnetxi that is right. Why feed starving people? Why dig them wells? Why not just let nature run its course?

Is it possible that the frogs are allergic to the aluminium that the NWO is spraying all over the world, the so called chem-trails?

@MerriestMick686 it may be replaced, but the new members of the niche may unbalance the ecosystem. However, that change can be good; only nature can determine whether a specie's presence will repair or damage a biome's ecosystem.
