NEWS FLASH…WE WON…for now…
The CA Fish and Game Commission again postponed their decision to allow unlimited killing of bears, expand the hunting territory and allow GPS on hunting dogs. The Dept. of F&G requested that no action be taken because they couldn’t have their required CEQA paperwork done, which required them to respond to all the substantive objections made to these changes, which were many, thanks to all the hard work of many groups around the state. To hear the whole very interesting discussion go to the FGC website.
This gives us some reprieve, for a while at least. But this has galvanized many groups who are now considering a ballot initiative to ban all bear hunting and/or use of hounds, which Californians would most likely support. What do you think?
I am against any ballot initiatve that bans the hunting of any animal, it is the fish and game dept job to manage wildlife, not the voters. It is my traditional right to hunt and no one has the right to infringe on it.
No one has the right to kill any wildlife…let’s all work together and get an anti hunting bill passed in California. Maybe we can yet hope people will have some humanity and decency. POWER TO THE BEARS RIGHT ON. It is the bears tradition to live in peace and harmony. They have roamed on this earth far longer than humans, and will still be on earth long after humans are gone…
