According to the Knight-Ridder News Service, the inscription on the metal
bands used by the U.S. Department of the Interior to tag migratory birds has
been changed. The bands used to bear the address of the Washington
Biological Survey, abbreviated, “Wash. Biol. Surv.”
The following letter from an Arkansas camper caused the change: “Dear Sirs:
While camping last week I shot one of your birds. I think it was a crow. I
followed the cooking instructions on the leg tag, and I want to tell you it
was horrible.”
