Everything I know about TLC is good stuff, but it would definitely be nice to get an answer.

While I will agree that most things with the Loon Center are good and they do a tremendous job. Tagging animals of any sort, where it requires capturing them in the wild just to tag them is not an acceptable practice. Tagging an animal that has been rescued and then prepped for release is a different story.

Its not just the Loon Conservatory that does this, you see it all the time.....at the end of the day its just not a good thing..... Now if you can tag the animal with out capturing it they way they do whales and sharks then it is another story.....
