United States Mexico border is an ecocide - La frontera entre Estados Unidos y México es un ecocidio - Defending animal rights

15 Jan, 04:32

The border fence erected and extended by the United States Department of Homeland Security to prevent undocumented immigration has had extremely negative effects on wildlife, including endangered species, whose habitats and ranges lie in the transboundary region (López-Ho man, Varady, and Balvanera 2009; Segee and Córdova 2009; Si- erra Club 2010). The fence deters virtually all wildlife crossings, cutting animals and reptiles off from sources of water, food, and access to habitat and to potential mates.

Wetlands are a critical source of biodiversity and losses of wetlands may be irreversible, limiting or prohibiting future e orts at restoration (Beibighauser 2007). At-risk estuaries include the Tijuana River and the Rio Grande, including the adjacent Laguna Madre coastal lagoon (Liverman et al. 1999). The Rio Grande is also home to endangered silvery minnows in the last remnant of their historical habitat and to flocks of migrating cranes and geese who gather in vast numbers to rest and refuge in riparian bosques (woodlands) (Hurd and Coonrod 2008). Native fish, neotropical songbirds, and migratory waterfowl, including threatened and endangered species, have all declined precipitously in recent decades (Lacewell et al. 2010).

Two principal vulnerabilities associated with the Lower Colorado River and delta are (1) the lack of dedicated ecological flows to sustain critical wetlands and bird habitat in the delta; and (2) the over-allocation of Colorado River water and over-reliance of the seven U.S. basin states and Sonora and Baja California on its water as a principal source of supply

Likely effects of the climate changes described in Table 16.1 are primarily associated with increasing temperatures, declining precipitation and stream flows, and increasing extreme events (i.e., droughts).

The Colorado River delta has been called “one of the most important estuaries in the world” (Zamora-Arroyo and Flessa 2009, 23) and is the largest remaining wetland system in southwestern North America.

Exactly something like this should happen, so that walls allow non contiguous fencing segments ... since the other solution
https://t.me/BorderWallEcocide/34
is even not really a solution ...

So in such opened free sections, WHERE ANIMAL EXPERTS SHOULD SAY WHERE EXACTLY TO KEEP THEM OPENED! police should remain there and stop people abusing of such opening (in case we know a lot of people illegally migrate via such openings ...).

The DHS has built eighteen segments of noncontiguous fencing in Hidalgo and Cameron counties. As shown in figure 2, some walls start only to end abruptly a few meters away. Neither DHS nor the Border Patrol has offered concrete information about the criteria used to determine the most effective locations for fencing in South Texas (Del Bosque, 2008).

Again, such opening need to be based on animal science! not randomly ...

So scientists / biologists need to tell the governments, where we need to keep that opened to reduce ecocide!

Within the entire U.S.-Mexico border region (including the eastern portion of the region outside the scope of this chapter), there are over 6,500 animal and plant species (EPA 2011). On the Mexican side, 235 species found in the border region are classified in a risk category. Of these, 85 are considered endangered under Mexico law. In the United States, 148 species found in border counties are listed as endangered under the U.S. Endangered Species Act (EPA 2011, 15).

Mexico border wall is simply bad low quality wall that is doing ecocide!

Instead of proper sensors inside the wall, means that it's enough touching the wall so that sensors send alarm to the police, migrants can simply climb that like 🦧 and the police is 💤 ...

Why keeping that open up to the top? Why having nothing on the top that could contrast them?

So ok that on the bottom is opened, to allow movement of small animals, which WILL NOT FIX BIG ANIMALS ECOCIDE ... and we need to be honest, they haven't done that for animals, but just to check the other side ... and they checked even BADLY! like you see in this video. Obviously, is not easy to check what is happening on the other side, because even if there are openings, from distance it will look pretty like a closed wall ... exactly what is happening with fences near streets too ...

When instead of using proper artificial intelligence, surveillance, sensors, police, structure of the wall that really could contrast climbing, etc. this wall is almost ecocide.

About the structure of the wall to contrast climbing, let we remember is NOT ok to put 🔪 on the bottom, that will just injury animals! Who matters if this will injury people, this was THEIR DECISIONS!, instead this is not the case for animals!
https://t.me/BorderWallEcocide/34

Yes, obviously no one will climb that, but ...
So we fixed the migration in part, by creating a much worse problem, especially for 🇺🇸 wall, due to climate change!
https://t.me/BorderWallEcocide/36

Second point: ILLEGAL MIGRANTS THAT DIE FROM THAT are not die because of the wall, THEY ARE DYING FOR SELF MADE SUICIDE! because this is like doing suicide jumping from a bridge! No empathy for such illegal migrants! If they do legal migration yes to empathy, with illegal migration NOPE! since many of them just abuse that!

Third, even if they did that, police cannot fire them with an helicopter or so ... since obviously this would be against human rights ... so even using helicopters is not really helpful ...

About this page by Amnesty we will release a comment in future.

Meanwhile we released a new position stand about migration, where we make things more clear, especially that we are not against refugees. This is important for us. We stand for a world without criminality and a planet with proper sentences and laws

One thing is sure, such walls are just 💩 ... You just need ✂️ and 🧤, which obviously animals don't have ...

It's like keeping prisoners in prison with such things ....

Ok, maybe on the top, but will help anything at all. See next post

Under a high-emissions scenario, we find that 35% of mammals and 29% of birds are projected to have over half of their 2070 climatic niche in countries in which they are not currently found.

We map these transboundary range shifts globally, identifying borders across which international coordination might most benefit conservation and where physical border barriers, such as walls and fences, may be an overlooked obstacle to climate adaptation.

The construction of such barriers can disturb or destroy habitats, fragment populations, prevent dispersal and migration, and directly or indirectly increase mortality via entanglement, poaching, and predation.

For example, border security fencing in Central Asia is likely to be impeding ungulate migrations (11, 41), while recently erected razor-wire security fencing along the Slovenia–Croatia border has increased mortality in herons and ungulates.

Barriers along stretches of the United States–Mexico border were found to de- crease the abundance of puma (Puma concolor) and coati (Nasua narica) (43), and the planned extension of this barrier is likely to prevent the re-establishment of dwindling or recently extirpated populations of endangered species in the United States, such as the Mexican gray wolf (Canis lupus baileyi) and Sonoran pronghorn (Antilocapra americana sonoriensis).

..

Finally, maintaining and enhancing habitat connectivity across borders between area-based conservation measures will be critical to enable range shifts under climate change, and this effort should be targeted to the regions in which it will have the most impact. We have shown that this is likely to be where borders cut across broad climatic gradients in species- rich areas, such as around the tropical Andes and Amazon, the Himalayas, and east–west borders such as the United States– Mexico border. Where border security barriers are a threat to this ecological connectivity, particularly along the United States–Mexico border and parts of Asia, we must implement appropriate measures.

Here an example of a NO GO wall
https://t.me/DefenceTelegram/573

From one side, it's good there is a door to put migrants out (even if many organisation complain this is against human right ... like they complain about everything other) or to allow animals to migrate (which is not the goal for them ...), but on the other side this is a serious danger for animals and we don't agree at all with such type of walls with 🔪
https://t.me/WomenRightsTelegram/709

Already the fact that walls stop animal migration is problematic
https://t.me/AnimalFreaks/2188
https://t.me/DefenceTelegram/573

but for such things local animal scientists know much better where such walls are a no go for animals ... since migration depends even from location to location ...

put in danger animals that cannot migrate is a NO GO!

The solution? Well, maybe creating walls, where every x km we have a passage that is controlled by AI or whatever. Means that on such point there is a double wall with 2 doors, and be sure that the second door will be opened only for animals ...

What do we mean? Let we say the door on the left is opened and the door on the right closed. Between the doors there are different meters. Once artificial intelligence detects animals (or human detect animals), the door on the left is closed and animal can transit ...

But this is still huge a chaos too ... (just think the mother looking for food, going to the other side and maybe not able to return back ... poor mother and babies ...) without considering that humans could abuse such system, like said before.

Obviously we should provide interval door opening, not that migration is possible just in one side ...

On the other side, this will not work. It's like having a bird in the house, opening the door and the bird still cannot leave the house ... So this is cool in theory, but in reality it will not really work in that way.

Animals in such case are not smart, but even people ... (think about empty checkout)
