Thanks for the story, Dan. I'm not a hunter either, but I'm aware of the
work that Ducks Unlimited do to preserve habitat, with the aim of ensuring
hunting is available and sustainable. There could certainly be an argument
for treating sandhill cranes the same as other edible bird species. As
always it depends on whether hunters will abide by the rules and stick to
the limits (and whether the government is setting and evaluating those
limits in a scientific manner), which isn't the case in every instance.
