Why don’t they just teach regular cranes to whoop?

THIS is a good use of public funds! We should have more places like this.

I think Cheyenne Bottoms is also the Windiest place in the U.S.

Actually, Mike Hayden has been a strong conservationist for a long time, and the education/visitors center is long overdue.

It makes sense to have a building about the wetlands because, after Kansas destroys all their wetlands, the only place you’ll see them is in a museum.

BTW: It’s a paddling of ducks and a gaggle of geese, not a riot. Whooping cranes have no accepted flock nomenclature: I suggest “an extinction of” Whooping cranes. Get it right

If Mike Hayden had anything to do with it, expect a drought, and the Bottoms to dry up.

Meanwhile, below the eye of the media, the Kansas Highway Department, KDOT, is cutting, slashing, grinding its way through the Ninnescah River alluvial wetlands along Highway 54. And destroying and burning thousands of trees in its questionable l00 million dollar widening of Highway 54 between Kingman and Pratt. Currently most of the damage is being done in the vicinity of Cunningham, Ks.

KDOT’s long range objective is to build a major 4/6 lane divided Super Highway from Wichita to El Paso, Texas and across the Rio Grand River to Ciudad Juarez, Mexico.

Is this KDOT highway project more important than alternative uses of these tax funds? And is this to be the new NAFTA super highway since Texans would not allow it through central Texas?
