Fish and waterfowl in a landlocked region with no noticeable bodies of water? -Elenar 19:40, 3 January 2008 (CET)

It does seem kind of odd. You could assume that only the major rivers are shown, and that marshlands and lakes are not shown. Not surprising, given the scale of the map. I do agree, however, that saying fish and waterfowl are a major source food in a badlands region seems to quite a stretch. I suppose it depends on your interpretation of badlands. --Indirik 20:56, 3 January 2008 (CET)

Brown, dry, dead... Not the place to find fish? The common interpretation of badlands ;). Medium 20:59, 3 January 2008 (CET)

"Badlands - a region marked by intricate erosional sculpturing, scanty vegetation, and fantastically formed hills —usually used in plural" Given this interpretation, it could easily be construed as a region where people have to resort to living off of fish caught in the rivers that do the "intricate erosional sculpturing" in order to survive. After all, you need flowing water to do the eroding in the first place. --Indirik 21:21, 3 January 2008 (CET)

I would consider a swamp/marshland to be in the 'badlands' category. Malitia 21:54, 3 January 2008 (CET)
