"The defenders of the short-sighted men who, in their greed and selfishness, will, if permitted, rob our country of half it's charm, by their reckless extermination of all useful and beautiful wild things. They sometimes seek to champion them by saying that the game belongs to the people. So it does, but not merely to the people now alive, but to the unborn people. The greatest good for the greatest number applies to the number within the womb of time, compared to which those now alive form but an insignificant fraction"- Theodore Roosevelt 1916
