Nebraska National Forest Long Range Management PlanOctober 25, 2006 08:42
Letter sent to the FWS regarding the Nebraska National Forest Long Range Management Plan.
I'd like to comment on the proposed Prairie Dog Supplement to the Nebraska National Forest Long Range Management Plan. I strongly object to your proposal to allow additional poisoning of prairie dogs on my National Grasslands, even in areas far from private land. There is no rational excuse for such a proposal. As a Colorado resident who enjoys the many outdoor activities in national parks in Colorado and neighboring states such as Nebraska, I am a strong advocate for the maintenance of National Parks in their natural condition including the reintroduction of large carnivores and prescribed burns. The prarie dog is a necessary component of the grassland ecosystem. I urge you to terminate this unnecessary and harmful planning process and implement the solutions found within the existing Nebraska National Forest Management Plan. Support our site...
