DNR Lies

The Michigan Department of Natural Resources is attacking small farmers. Now they’re lying claiming they’re not doing what they are doing. This is patently false. Watch out how they use tricky wording… Among other things they claim that the ‘feral pigs’ are a different species than domesticated pigs.

Modern definition of species is if they can breed together and produce viable offspring then they are the same species. What you’re talking about is different breeds, not different species.

See:

“In biology, a species is one of the basic units of biological classification and a taxonomic rank. A species is often defined as a group of organisms capable of interbreeding and producing fertile offspring.”
Wiki

This is the generally accepted scientific definition.

Wolves, coyotes and dogs are now recognized as all being the same species. They interbreed very nicely and produce viable offspring despite there being Pit bulls vs Chihuahuas. Those are merely breed differences.

Same with humans. We’re all the same species, even Neanderthals. We can interbreed and produce viable offspring.

There are sub-species, however those are the same species.

The DNR is being unscientific in that they are defining the animals based on phenotypic characteristics and not species characteristics. The DNR is a sham front for Big Ag that is trying to wipe out small producers. They tried this with NAIS. The “feral pig” issue is just one more underhanded attempt to dominate the market. They’re running scared to be trampling on the Constitution like this. Don’t back down.

Fight it, while you still can.
