    Pine Snakes are part of the wholistic Pine Barrens ecosystem.

    Not only Chief Joseph knows and speaks that "everything is connected." This isn't a case of listing or delisting a snake, venomous our not.

    The issue is honoring and preserving the natural links that go back before Europeans, before the Lenni Lenapes in that region - required for the health of the entire ecosystem.

    There is more to life than profit!

    Developers have blinders on. We are here to be nature's defenders, not her despoilers.
