Stuart Watson said:Fantastic that the IBW`s haven`t dissapeared into the history books (yet), but the cartoons (although initially funny) do outline the potentially disasterous reality -i cant help but feel deeply sadened at the thought of such a magnificent bird fading out. I feel so helpless - the government must be ultimately held responsible for the future of this species. Rules , boundaries , laws should be brought in immediately - though even this i fear may worsen the situation.

The thing to do is to expand habitat, connect the corridors in AR, LA, and Mississippi as much as possible, and hope. I would educate the hunter groups that their rights in the refuges will not be taken away, only that certain areas may be off-limits if a breeding roost is found. If a breeding site is found, I would hope EVERYBODY leaves the site alone.
