      <![CDATA[Thank you to Henry Stewart for an excellent piece! I have found waterfowl and other birds impaled on illegal barbed hooks and entangled in fishing line, and I know of someone who recently found a dead painted turtle, strangled by fishing line.

      <![CDATA[I think it is very sad and misguided that PP has money to chase beautiful wildlife away from the park but not money to invest in the future - as Windsor Terrace states 'children learn things in a park they can't learn anywhere else'; especially children who may rarely have the opportunity to get out of the city and experience nature anywhere other than a city park. <br>
<br>
You don't have to force kids to learn anything in a park; they are curious and interested in everything and enthralled with the wildlife - especially these large beautiful and social Canada geese who are excellent role models for humans demonstrating perfect loyalty and commitment to their mates and children.

      <![CDATA["Prospect Park still has the money, it should be noted, to hire dogs to chase geese." Ha, good point.

      <![CDATA[Bravo to L Magazine for telling it like it is regarding the wildlife torment, harassment and exterminations occurring in our public parks.<br>
<br>
Good riddance to the Macy's fishing contest is right.<br>
<br>
Some of us are sick of seeing egrets, geese and swans with entangled fishing line around their beaks and feet. I have witnessed two geese completely crippled by these lines, hobbling around on one leg.<br>
<br>
I have also seen turtles hooked by fisherman who didn't know how to get the turtles off the hooks.<br>
<br>
And of course, all the tormented fish, who half dead are thrown back in the water or given away dead to small kids passing by.<br>
<br>
Disgusting, all of it.<br>
<br>
Indeed, the only "good news" wildlife has had this year is the cancellation of the fish tormenting contest.<br>
<br>
Now, that we could only get rid of the goose harassment and extermination programs.<br>
<br>
When are we humans ever going to learn to live PEACEFULLY with nature??!<br>
