Always assumed no crane season to protect Whoopers.
The problem is the fact that Sandhills have been around LA longer than the Whooping Crane reintroduction has been going on, so that's not really a great reason.
The reintroduction program as it exists today didn't begin until 2011. There's records of Sandhills in Louisiana for at least a decade before that.
If I had to guess, it has more to do with what would be involved at the federal level of getting a crane season going, and the fact there probably isn't much known about how many Sandhills actually migrate to LA. In other words, they don't have the basic information to even establish a season.
