Joan, I don't know about the article in PA but it may have been an
excerpt  from a book by Jennifer Price called Flight Maps.One of the
chapters is on the extinction of the passenger pigeon. I remeber
reading it in my Political Ecology class when I was in college. I
think it would be a great piece to share with your students.
