NM Public Land Trapping Ban Moves Forward

[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: Joel Gay

A ban on trapping on public lands throughout New Mexico is a step closer after the Senate Conservation Committee today (Tuesday, Feb. 2) voted by a wide margin to approve it. Senate Bill 32, known as the Wildlife Conservation & Public Safety Act, passed 7-2 after minimal public testimony was allowed. Only a handful of the public was allowed to testify, and of those, few were in opposition to the trapping ban. NM BHA sought permission to testify but was not chosen by the chair to speak. We ...

OPINION: Outfitter guaranteed hunting license makes hunting elitist

[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: Jake Schwaller

Montana’s hunting opportunities are the envy of other Western states, in large part because we place a premium on equal opportunity, regardless of financial means. That’s why thousands of nonresident, do-it-yourself hunters flock to Montana each hunting season, supporting our fish and wildlife and rural economies with their license dollars and purchases. Yet, some state legislators are working to change our hunting opportunities to a system of haves and have-nots: something Montana’s ...

[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: New York BHA

From the Chair I hope this newsletter finds everyone healthy as we put 2020 in the rearview mirror and give our full attention to 2021.
