[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 449408, member: 704"] We only see a few of the birds killed in this manner because predators learn to check them out for free meals. The largest white pelican colony in this country is at Chase Lake north of Medina, North Dakota. A power line crosses along close to the south shore. Checking under these power lines intermittently one would think maybe a half dozen a year hit the lines and died. Nope watching closely for a day revealed seven strikes and coyotes picked up all within 72 hours. Nets under a communication tower in the James River Valley caught thousands of dead birds from striking support cables durring migration. Since growing up on, and later within 1/2 mile, of the Spirit Lake Reservation I have noticed that the liberal mindset most often destroys what it tries to save. Mostly because they follow their uneducated emotions and not science. [/QUOTE]
