North Americans Invade the South
North American Beavers - introduced into Tierra del Fuego as stock for a fur trade - have expanded across the continent and are doing their bit in the cause of destroying every piece of standing wood on the planet. A more ruthless breed of deforester - enticed by generous economic incentives - is using violence and intimidation to clear those pesky humans out of the way of massive agro-fuel monocultures. Maybe they'll join forces.
There is a rich vein of expletives that I could mine here - a rolling riff of semantic profanity - but I shall...walk...away...from...it.
