And now:Ish <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: TALLGRASS PRAIRIE PLAN FALLS SHORT: A 2/11 press release from the Kansas Audubon Council criticizes a National Park Service draft management plan for the Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve. According to the release, the plan designates only 10% of the preserve to reintroduction of bison, with no mention of reintroducing native pronghorn antelope or elk. A majority of the land would be open to cattle grazing. The release states, "It is a Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve, not a federal grazing allotment." You can see more info about this National Preserve at: http://www.nps.gov/tapr/home.htm. This page also includes links to an online presentation about the Management Plan, and has a form for you to make your comments known! Public comments are being accepted until March 5.
