They look crap but presumably offer some protection for the chicks, though not from each other (see the murderous activities within the nests in my previous post ). Not sure why they spend time in Shanghai in winter when they could come here though, but then again, I usually do not understand most of the behavior of humans either.

TE is practiced by state and federal wildlife managers; but municipal TE needs to happen if the annihilation of native wildlife is to be significantly slowed. Before the recent events you had to really dig around on the National Audubon Society’s website before you finally got to this page on cats. Pretty standard.

So I put together a “carnival” (of sorts) of Feral Cat Ordinances and Issues that samples current events across the US. Nonprofit pet protection groups would manage the program and be responsible for ensuring that cat caretakers take the required steps. The other day, Minneapolis, Minnesota passed a feral cat ordinance.

Harassed by the Ravens, it landed on a snag halfway up the cliff and hunched over its prize protectively. If these two events were fables, the Ravens would have switched roles in mere minutes from big hulking bullies to cunning, dogged little fighters.

Fish and Wildlife Service tells states when they may propose a hunting season on cranes, and has ultimate jurisdiction over whether the states get their seasons. So we can squawk at the state wildlife departments all we want, but the USFWS has the final say. In the only state in the Central Flyway that protects cranes from hunting.
