They drop off after 10 months so that they don't constrain the females as they grow larger. They had the data they needed. There's no sense in further stressing the animals at that point.$460k, while a lot for an individual, is nothing in terms of research.

You think efforts to save a species are a waste?

i can only hope that all forms or life that have existed past present or future on earth are at other locations in the galaxy, otherwise it make it that more sad,
For those considering buying a new vehicle, don't forget to check out the new 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser. Great for adventures off road, just for cruising around town, or running to the store.

The new 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser seats five and comes in two-tone with a Voodoo Blue, Titanium Metallic, Black Diamond, Sun Fusion, Sandstorm or Brick body color and White top. The interior fabric color is Dark Charcoal, while the dash, center instrument panel trim and the door inserts match the body.
