The protections given gad the desired effect of recovering the populations. I rember the moaning and gnashing of teeth when wwere removed from the endangered species list (downgraded to protected to be correct). And of course numbers have continued to increase since. While not to the same degree as white tail deer, the issue of food supply is ciming into play. They eat sick fish (easier to catch esspecialy when they are about ddead and floating near the surface). We have a lot of them in VA and around Richmond where I live owing to us being on the James River. We have, well had a coal fired power generating ststion bynthe river and with the heat being discipated into the river we have a fish slow cooker and loads of bald eagles (now). I remember going down to a park on the river and saw without turning my head at all, 12 eagles. Sorry for the rambling but the point is that its not a problem taking a few birds to honor indian trities. Kinda falks into sound game management now. Giving a free pass to turbines ti take birds willy nilly is bad on many levels.

[QUOTE="dogtowner, post: 221674, member: 2483"] The protections given gad the desired effect of recovering the populations. I rember the moaning and gnashing of teeth when wwere removed from the endangered species list (downgraded to protected to be correct). And of course numbers have continued to increase since. While not to the same degree as white tail deer, the issue of food supply is ciming into play. They eat sick fish (easier to catch esspecialy when they are about ddead and floating near the surface). We have a lot of them in VA and around Richmond where I live owing to us being on the James River. We have, well had a coal fired power generating ststion bynthe river and with the heat being discipated into the river we have a fish slow cooker and loads of bald eagles (now). I remember going down to a park on the river and saw without turning my head at all, 12 eagles. Sorry for the rambling but the point is that its not a problem taking a few birds to honor indian trities. Kinda falks into sound game management now.
