The communications need to be improved. Access is a huge issue out here in this open space because so many people can't keep their vehicles on the roads and don't know where they are going so drive all over to see what is there. Access via foot is not barred. Tracking from vehicles is not the way to go. I will gladly talk to Mr DuBois since I live next to the border and the refuge and see what is going on. he can email malpaimule@vtc,netAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5748604.post-4118266154799909802010-04-09T05:11:58.954-06:002010-04-09T05:11:58.954-06:00Perhaps you should read the letters from the Regio...Perhaps you should read the letters from the Regional Director of USFWS to the BP which drastically reduces their access to the refuge.

The refuge is on the border, Krentz ranch is 25 miles away. The limited trackers on the refuge, which included Border Patrol both on foot and horse back, was solely to preserve tracks. In this community the refuge and it's management are good cooperators with the ranchers, as well as our local Border Patrol. Don't drag untruths into the story. Instead we urge you to get good solid information and make real efforts to make positive changes in border security.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
