Over the winter, the universe lost four whooping cranes to what appears to be recreational shooting: three gunned down together in Georgia on December 30, 2010, and another in Alabama on January 28, 2011. Do all hunters realize that?

Considering the bird survived a season in an area saturated with hunters and birds of prey, this facemelting rarity deserves our respect. Secondly, well just look at it.
