I was asking just yesterday, the legality of collecting inverts in Texas.



The entire premise for the law makes no sense, if in fact, insects and DOR are not illegal, too.



Suggestions:



Lets get licenses, individual radio tracking identifiers (GPS Transponders), and practice notification to relevant law enforcement authorities when in the field. Just like pilots do with a flight plan. A limited deputization might be possible, providing an assist to law enforcement. Notifications of illegal and questionable activity might be in order. Reams of natural history data could be compiled with actual dates, times, and places.



There needs to be graduated licensing system authorizing greater scope and authorization based on ability, qualification, and function.



Let's please find some common ground and cooperation.
