gypsy posted this comment on the TMT thread. I hope he doesn't mind but as it concerns Ka'u and feral pigs, not telescopes and Mauna Kea, I thought I would re-post it here as a separate topic.
For anyone who wishes to participate in the weighty (up to 300-400 pounds?) discussion of Sacred Pigs in Ka'u District:
“You’re eradicating a Native Hawaiian religious symbol,” Dombroski said of the plan to rid the fenced parts of the forest of the pigs. “You’re eradicating a religious ceremonial object. Its analogous, as matter of fact, to desecrating Christian sacraments.”

I would rather be able to hunt, gather, teach and provide than support the TMT. The state is irradiating the Hawaiians and their way of life, enough is enough already. jmo.
