Lynx deserve protection

To the editor,
We are surprised that the Koochiching County Commissioners seem to show no concern for the future of Canadian Lynx in the state.
The Endangered Species Act ruled that the lynx needs protection in the lower 48 states. No other state has expressed unhappiness with this ruling and all have accepted the ruling.
Strange then that one county is opposing the national concern. One commissioner calls it "a lot of B.S." while others refer to the Canadian lynx as "cats with a bad hair day."
Frankly I'd rather have a bad hair day than no brains at all.
