Re: Pupfish project questionaire



I'd be interested in preserving California native pupfish in the pond I am
currently building.  No laws prevent me from planting Quercus engelmanii or
Mahonia nevinii in my yard and maintaining them for future generations.  Why
isn't it the same with fish?

I'd be willing to document their behavior, including their binges on green
eggs and ham...

 All,
 
 I'vw gone ahead and contacted Both of them. Hopefully they will have some
 positive input. OK heres a what if Question...........Id like to see what
 kind of support is out there for a potential Pupfish Project.
 
 1. Would you be willing to make a small Cash donation that would go
 directly to support the aquarium maintinence of extripated pupfish
 species ?
 
 
 2. Would you be willing to put 1 tank or pond in use and maintain a
 single species in it. Document behavior and life histories ? 
 
 
 3. Would you eat green eggs and Ham , Would you could you Sam I am. ? :)
