Did city leader ever hear of wildlife tourism?

Thank you, Sun Herald, for your report on the Mississippi Sandhill Crane National Wildlife Refuge.

To the city leader who called it “an economic dead zone” — ever hear of wildlife tourism?

Maybe you are too hard-hearted to care about the environment but the refuge is better for tourism than anything you could develop there.
