I wouldn't put it that way. But it goes way farther then this when it comes to logging trees, as I think most of the people posting here know. Forests provide for much more then the spotted owl. Destroying the forests is destroying the entire chain of life that lives there, which includes the spotted owl. Wether or not the owl is endangered is not the issue here. The forests and the life in them, which we are invading and destroying, is the issue.
