Talk:Tallgrass prairie

Untitled
I realized this when I first searched for Tallgrass Prairie, the photo on this page is not a photo of tallgrass, it's a photo of Phragmites australis, also called common reed. Anyhow, it's an invasive species, which prefers wetlands. My Wiki skills are not that good, so I don't know how to change this picture. If anyone else does or can, please do.


 * First we need to locate an image that is in the public domain. Any ideas?  If you can locate an image, I can upload it to Wikipedia.  Sunray 16:16, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

Followup on Tall-Grass Photo Issue:

I apologize if the photo issue has been corrected (see above), since it seems due to my slow phone line I cannot download the full photo, and I could not even get access to the thread of that topic, but I would say four things. One--with the photo as it appears I cannot tell that it is Phragmites or not. Two--in either case, the photo seems to be a poor one which does not illustrate the size, height, or extent of Tall-Grass Prairie. It looks like a very small disjunct planting of some tall-grass. Three--if fixed with a non-Phragmites photo, no notice of the change seems to appear anywhere that I can find. Four--if this photo is incorrect, it really should be removed until an accurate is available, with all due respect to the above statement about first finding a proper one. Having no photo available is better than a misleading inaccurate one, and would be temporary. Bluestem (talk) 19:56, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

I just happened to look at the photo of bison grazing, and I must say this photo is also rather poor. First, it looks to be mid-grass prairie at best. A good photo of bison grazing in Tall-Grass would have bison barely visible, since the stalks would be taller than the bison. I will find out if bison typically graze in Tall-Grass Prairie grasses or if this photo should be removed as well. With the millions of people who now live where the Tall-Grass Prairie once stood, it seems we should do better than this. Bluestem (talk) 20:06, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

Tallgrass Prairie Animals
The article Tallgrass Prairie Animals redirects to this article; however, there's barely a mention of bison, let alone other animals. There needs to be a section regarding this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.15.209.155 (talk) 01:58, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

Age of the tallgrass prairie
at the rate of disappearance age seems important enough to me to warrant a new section, which I will insert.--Wuerzele (talk) 20:49, 7 October 2013 (UTC)
