Re: [GZG] Bovine rebuttal

I hate it when I argue the other side, but a great number, perhaps most,
carnivores are specialized in their attacks, occasionally to particular
species of prey.

The specialist will always trump the generalist, over short periods. Some
of those periods are only geologically short, which is damn long in my
perspective.

Change tends to be the friend of the generalist, or, at least, less a
friend of the specialist.

'Geeze, Doug, is this going someplace?'

Dunno. Maybe species annihilation in the face of global warming? Kind of
lost track...
