Hello, I write Wild Muse. It’s a surprise, and an honor, to find my recent MW post mentioned here. Thank you for your kind words; but more importantly, thanks for the extensive wildlife news coverage you provide on this blog. – DeLene

The first mistake was not making penalties strong enough to deter this reprehensible behavior. I know Bud Fazio- and he will make changes to bring this program in a new direction.
