Abstract/Contents: | Announces the death of wildlife conservationist Sheila Lawrence. Details Lawrence's work with trumpeter swans in Minnesota, noting that "[she] took it upon herself to feed shelled corn to the swans and capture any injured swans so they could get the veterinary care that they needed so they could be returned to the wild." Mentions the banding of the swans, as well as the construction of a viewing park adjacent to Lawrence's home. Concludes that "Sheila will be missed. Over the past 23 years, you might say that..[she] earned her wings caring for, protecting, and helping restore [the swans]." |
