Current Conditions

edit

Please update this section (and include the current date) as necessary, or add info about other sections of the river. Please base your contributions on actual personal experience or first-hand knowledge of the current conditions on the river. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Raftman1979 (talkcontribs) 21:17, 25 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Of course, basing contributions on "actual personal experience or first-hand knowledge" would violate Wikipedia's ban on original research. Xenophon777 (talk) 16:12, 29 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

I think you need to reexamine the portion of this article that states the Kankakee terminates in Will County IL. I am not at all an expert in these matters, but live at the confluence of the Desplaines and Kankakee Rivers and can assure you that they meet, in my opinion, in Grundy County IL several hundred yards to the west of the county line. 108.223.238.62 (talk) 03:10, 22 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Flora and Fauna

edit

Anyone with references able to add something about the flora and fauna of the river? The catfish, carp, birds, trees and such? Xenophon777 (talk) 16:12, 29 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Name and its connection to the Great Kankakee Swamp

edit

Although in Anishinaabemowin, the river is known as Dootoogang-aki-ziibi (Land of the Morass/Bog River), and referring to the Great Kankakee Swamp, I can't find any references to it other than a pun reference that speaks of the Potawatomi stories connecting it to "mother's breast" (doodoosh). Plus, there needs to be something that speak to the Miami name for the river Theakiki. CJLippert (talk) 14:40, 19 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
