@engineers_feed Yeah, but they weren’t technically lying, they believed what they were saying was the truth, at least the truth given there experience.. 🍎
I had been a customer of Rubios for 35 or more years. I found it disappointing how over the last 10-15 years thier product quality had declined to the point where I’d just as soon make a different food choice. Those stores used to be packed with customers. I am guessing food quality is what drove them away.
In 1948, 76 beavers were parachuted into the Idaho wilderness as part of a relocation program by the Idaho Department of Fish and Game.

The program was initiated to address the growing conflict between humans and beavers in areas where people were building homes, such as Payette Lake. The beavers' natural activities, like dam building and tree cutting, were causing problems for the new residents.
The relocation site, Chamberlain Basin, was chosen because it was a remote and suitable location for the beavers to thrive. However, the area was difficult to access due to the lack of roads. The solution was to use surplus parachutes from World War II to drop the beavers into their new home.
A specially designed crate was created to ensure the safety of the beavers during the drop. After several test drops with a beaver named Geronimo, the project was deemed successful and continued until 1948.
As a result, the beavers transformed the landscape into a lush wetland, creating a haven against fire and drought. Their descendants now live in what is part of the largest protected roadless forest in the continental United States.
