I am curious, What "stupid consequences" has been lead to about native /
indigenous species? The one consequence I can see that may have come out of
this subject is if there was native / indigenous species in the Americas
before the introduction of European, African, and Far Eastern species then
they may still be around and should be located so they do not become an
extinct species soon. Another may be that the so called killer bee may not
be an African bee. Hopefully, DNA testing may help conclude this matter. If
the so called killer bee is not an African bee it would be good news to the
beekeeping industry.
