Absolutely, but keep them inside the city limits of LA and San Francisco so they can be adequately protected by PETA and the city police.

Which means it belongs to the same species hence the trinomial

Don't hurt yourself.

Bolded is exactly why it went extinct not extirpated.

I take it this is part II of the previous thread {LOLZ} but with math and stuff. Personally I don't like Grizzlies in my camp.

Trinomail in this usage is biological and has to do with the three part Scientific name of the California Grizzly bear. Anytime a scientific name in biology has three parts, the organism in question is not a species but a genetically stable, but not reproductively isolated population within a species. Because it isn't a species, a local disappearance due to human causes is termed an extirpation rather than an extinction. An extinction is when the entire species ceases to exist.

Grizzly bears can be reintroduced with delicious salmon.

I'd be more worried about coyotes if I were you.
