There was a decline of pelicans in the DDT era, and they were listed as endanger then. They were taken off the endangered list back in abt 1989.
I am not sure what their status is. I think they are listed as a "threaten" species or a species of "special concern". They also have federal protection or jurisdiction since they are a migratory bird.
When F&G was putting fences on the islands, they had to do it before the birds came back. Once the birds are there, they can't do anything. So there must be some laws or regulations about "bothering" their nesting areas etc.
I wonder if a herd of sheep would like to graze on those islands in the spring???? hmmm Anyone know of some sheep that swim well??? [laugh][laugh][laugh]
