A Wisconsin lawmaker wants to let hunters go after sandhill cranes.

Sandhill crane populations have grown dramatically across North America over the last 30 years. Wisconsin is a key nesting area for cranes that migrate up and down the eastern United States, and the International Crane Foundation is based in Baraboo.

But state Rep. Joel Kleefisch says the population has grown so much that they're causing too much damage to farmers' cornfields. He has introduced a bill that would require the Department of Natural Resources to set up a limited hunt.

I was just imagining a platter of Buffalo style wings made from those.  :lmao:

I seriously doubt if anyone would bother hunting those things anyway. Here in New York we are overrun with Canada Geese and they make the most God awful table fare any way you prepare them.
Once you get all the feathers off a crane what have you got left? Just like an artichoke.
