They stick with their own ilk...their mirror images. With the same brains the same aims the same goals the same views. The smaller they shrink the closer they get to the brink of extinction. They do not know their only hope for survival to reach out stretch expand. So they hasten their demise by giving in to their fears and once gone there will be no one to mourn them. Those who cared will die with them. And so it goes. Extinction of a subspecies by its own hand!
