For all of you who love Wagyu steak, those genetics were smuggled into North Missouri well before they were supposed to be let out of Japan and damn sure didn't come into the country with approval. You can repeat this scenario over and over with various examples of animals and genetics over the last century.

Hell, the government profits off of tax payers hunting their herd of invasive species in the Florida mountains that they themselves imported from Iran. Then there's the Oryx on the white sand missile base, and surrounding area, that they brought in out of Africa. Multiple different states have released sheep into the wild.

Do as I say, not as I do. ... unless you pay me for permission. Then we'll figure out a way to make it happen.

I live in Florida, where are the mountains?! We have to travel to North Carolina/Virginia to ski in the winter.

The Florida Mountains are in New Mexico.

I'm pretty sure you have an island of invasive monkeys down there though don't you? I can't remember who released them, but I want to say it was a movie company and not the state.

Technically, those aren't mountains in Florida. They're curbs.
