MOVI at Ten Years article

Oh I see. Yes, clicking on it did make it much bigger (and readable!). Interesting article. I like all of his questions because he acknowledges that there have indeed been Bighorns that have survived M.ovi outbreaks and stayed healthy. I really think the Bighorn researchers need to start thinking about their own methods of study, which are extremely invasive and stressful for the sheep. Dr. Besser's questions lead to a very obvious research project in my opinion: What is the difference in pathogen tolerance between herds that have been tampered with and/or relocated/reintroduced vs. native herds that have been largely left alone? It's possible the answer to his questions has been staring him in the face for decades. One of the major problems facing a large number or researchers and scientists is they can't see the forest for the trees. They're so busy peering through microscopes and studying small groups and samples they forget to step back and look at the larger picture.
