	[Nicely said Sam.]

	The easiest question to answer in this case is "Which is
	more sad, a hawk getting it's meal or a hunter shooting
	a hawk?"

	I have a few questions:

	What's the purpose of the "prey dancing"?  Is it so other
	hawks don't recognize it as a kill and won't bother to
	challenge?

	Are there any attempts at passing legislation aimed at
	making lead buckshot illegal?  (at least)...
