i havent read the article at all but if the cats range goes beyond where the fence would cut them off at then it could very well kill them off. or if it prevents movements of things they feed on. its a little thing called habitat destruction, which is a big factor in the high rate of extinction of various plant and animal species

Who cares?

You have a serious problem with looking at things realistically.

Discounting the fact that you never read the goddamned article to begin with, it states that there are no more than 120 jaguars left in that area. Even if building the fence wiped out the population, it wouldn't really make a difference. The "extinction" of 120 animals in an isolated part of the world wouldn't affect anything. I highly doubt jaguars have an predators, and the prey they eat wouldn't really be affected population wise with such a small number of jaguars left. Their "extinction" would make minimal to no difference on their existing habitat

Nothing bothers me more than protecting the extreme minority at the expense of the majority. I really hope PETA doesn't catch wind of this because god knows they'll throw a hellacious hissy fit
