Here He Is, Your Komodo Dragon…

There’s a new book for anyone ever frustrated by the bureaucratic enforcement of the Endangered Species Act: The Hunter’s Guide to Endangered Species by “The Old Biologist” (Xlibris, 2005). The pseudononymous author takes a light-hearted approach to the world’s biological rarities, including recipes for such delicacies as California Condor Soup.

Of course, not everyone will be amused by this extended jest. The publisher’s press release opens with the question “Do environmentalists have a sense of humor?” I think we know the answer to that one.
