get real guys! Who can ever stop the child from picking up a shell from the
beach? The fact that bird lovers don't collect stuffed birds anymore hasn't
seen a decline in their numbers (if anything, there's probably more of
them). In twenty years time, we may just go out to the beach armed with a
camera, instead of a plastic bag. In fact, I already do. Does that mean we
will necessarily be having less fun? Of course not!
