Welkerii is Correct
He's put a lot of thought into this.
He's not saying that we want "open season" on all herps.
He's saying that we need to be part of the decision making.
We need bag limits and not blanket protection. Sure some
animals are in need of protection but not all of them.
If the guys that were recently busted had the opportunity to
obtain permits and didn't, then I would say....yeah; go ahead
and bust them.
I live in New Mexico and they have a limit on collecting
Crevice Spiny Lizards.....30 per year. I have to pass up
hundreds of them to stay within my quota. People have no
idea just how vast some of our habitats are and how
inaccessible they are.
Don't get me wrong, New Mexico Fish and Game has some good
ideas but they also have some screwed up ideas....like $25 per
animal imported into the state.
More later
