Chapter 14, Problem 3CCS

10-Year-Old Boy with Spinal Injury

On arrival at Holyoke Hospital, Jimmy Chin, a 10–year-old boy, is immobilized on a rigid stretcher so that he is unable to move his head or trunk. The paramedics report that he was awake and alert after his accident at the skateboard park, but crying and complaining that he couldn't get up and that he had a “wicked headache."

As will be discussed in class, there are a number of non-scientific issues involved or implicated in rewilding, all ultimately affecting the public acceptability of rewilding. Although these issues are important – indeed, critical – in this assignment you should focus on the biological science issues and questions.   Details: You must enumerate at least two pros and at least two cons. Your answer should be no more than 500 well-chosen words, excluding references. Think carefully about how best to organize and structure your answer.
