The Wikipedia definition of endangered specie is as follows; " An endangered species is a species which has been categorized to become extinct" Last edited by proratman; 11/08/17 07:12 AM.

Running a 3 day check right now because I have some sets in organized towns. Once it gets colder I will go to a 5 day check in just unorganized towns. A 3 day check is hard right now with school, but I'm making it work. Alex Wilderness, in a word, is freedom
