    Bots and Colorado tag reissue list

    Last three tags I got from CO were from the leftover list. When my son still lived there, he got one for me by standing at a license vendor's counter until they went on sale, and snagged it no problem, in and out in 3 minutes. Those tags were all gone in the first 10 minutes, if you could even...

    Feral horse removal

    I mean, given enough time in office he will find everyone's sacred issue and violate it. It's truly inevitable. For many of us, that's enough to provide some hope.

    Bulldozers at Big Bend

    Not sure if you've ever been there (sounds like no) but the border is the most visited and scenic part of that NP. What I find ironic is that the maga crowd is always crying about local rule and let conservative judges/LEO handle things, and yet in this specific case the local - conservative...

    Roadless Rule Rescinded

    That last part made me giggle a bit. I mean, nice idea. Should work "in theory..." :D

    Roadless Rule Rescinded

    We lost 80% of the "wild" that once existed by the 1950's. What all of us have grown up with is a shadow of what used to be, even just two or three generations ago. Now we fight over the scraps. Why? Because humans are lazy and greedy beings. And that will never change.

    No, it's straight up ditched and drained because you don't need tiles in that landscape.

    Yup, you definitely are from that area. :D Carry on my friend. Go boldly!

    And there go the prairie potholes....

    In what world do we now live that a self-described "conservative" administration has proposed this change that is so universally opposed by the conservation and hunting communities? I mean, nobody should have been surprised by the change in the definition of "harm" but this one is just a slap...

    And there go the prairie potholes....

    Maybe there weren't artificially high numbers of waterfowl before the rice (but definitely higher than there are now), but there were big numbers of other birds, including migratory grassland birds (the group in the steepest decline of all bird species) and now-critically endangered Attwater's...

    And there go the prairie potholes....

    That's actually not even what this thread is about. And it's not surprising that you've lived in the EL area for 66 years based on your baises. Look, let's think back 100 years ago. Exactly what do you think was supporting the flocks of waterfowl that were known to "darken the sky" in those...
