This is the photo showing an immature Whooping Crane flying side 
by side with a mature Sandhill Crane that was used in the presentation 
on the proposed Sandhill Crane hunting season.  It was taken by
Charles D. Dean. He said he was glad that his photos seems to have 
helped in the decision. The photo shows the danger of hunting sandhills 
when whooping cranes may be flying close to them with the possibility
of killing a whooping crane.
