Manitoba Sandhill Crane Season Opens for Residents
A new Sandhill Crane season opened last Tuesday for Manitoba residents with licences sold only at Westbourne Gladstone Langrath Amaranth Plumas and Glenella or through the Wildlife Branch. Area B on the season map is the only open hunting zone with a two bird limit and a $2 25 fee not covering other game birds. The article notes mixed opinions on crane table qualities but cites authorities who say a young crane, properly cooked, is tender and tasty. It also reports a Manitoba sturgeon record of 119 pounds at Lamprey Falls and updates on fishing, wildlife publications, and the shift to plastic shotgun shells this season.
