Buffalo River Officials Fighting Plant Thefts

The term criminal mastermind usualy does not apply in this type of crime.

Having lived in and near the park mist of my life. its simple it is nothing to do with saving anything. Its about keeping locals off the park. Most of you have never been harassed by the barney fife park rangers. Most of the ginsing in the park has been replanted by the same people who would harvest it.

This "Marking Plants" is assuming that the Govrnmentactually has people who can not only ID the properplants, but can find them too....

[rhondafish]

It strikes me thatit's unlikely th typical Government employee marking said plants probably would have a hard time finding them, even if he was one of the few who could identify it if he saw it.

Unfortunately, most folks cannotID even 10 commom plants in theirneck of the woods...let alone one that is hard to find.

I'm all for protection in the Park of everything...but this idea seems far fetched, pie in the sky.."seemed like a good idea in the meeting " kind of a plan

If the local yokels can figure it out where it grows and what it looks like, it can't be too tough, right?
