>>Fortunately, for those of us who live in Texas, TPWD is a proponent of wildlife management, and asked the question "is the take biologically meaningful" and answered it with "not according to the evidence at hand" . . . several of us that sat in on those advisory meetings a few years back made sure they asked the right questions, too . . . so part of what I'm saying is that rather than worry about what the public might think, one way to get around it is to get your foot in the door with the decision makers and participate in the decision making. TPWD was rather surprised at the outpouring of comments from the snake community the last time around, too.
And I'm grateful for this. The very LAST thing I want to see is our priveledge of limited take revoked. We Texans are fortunate in that way especially when compared to some other states. Our 10 of any one species and 25 in aggregate is very acceptable, or almost even generous when compared to CA, or AZ.
