From: Megan Dahle Senator‚ 1st District

"All too often‚ it can seem like Sacramento just doesn’t listen to the voice of the people. I’m happy to celebrate when loud voices force them to back down on a bad idea.

The California Fish and Game Commission was set to consider a rule requiring permits to hunt or trap coyotes—a rule that would have made it even harder for farmers‚ ranchers‚ and homeowners to protect their animals. Coyotes have always been a “non-game species“ under state law‚ and adding more red tape would have been a disaster for those dealing with livestock losses and backyard attacks.

The California Department of Fish and Wildlife has thrown up many more hurdles in the path to obtain a “depredation permit“ to control other predators in recent years‚ costing property owners much more time and money when they simply want to protect their own animals. We don’t need to make it even harder.

What’s more‚ the Commission was ready to take up this idea after holding initial meetings with barely any public notice. Our open-government laws are clear that the public must be informed and have a chance to speak up before these important decisions are made. That just didn’t happen here‚ and that’s a key reason Assemblywoman Heather Hadwick and I wrote a letter to the Commission saying they needed to pull the item off their agenda. On Wednesday‚ the Commission did just that.

I appreciate the farmers‚ ranchers‚ hunting groups and others who also spoke up against this misguided policy. Together‚ we made Sacramento listen.

Let’s keep fighting together."

Still at it, they are proposing status change to coyotes from non game to whatever, take, seasons, weapons etc.
it ain’t over.
I understand what some people are saying or posting about this, that it is over or not going to be on the agenda… but they obviously do not really understand California politics.
 
CA is very good at making an attack and letting the pro freedom think they have a win. Then, while we are congratulating ourselves and declaring victory with our guard down, they sweep back in.

It's like Freddy Kruger on Friday the 13th. Just when you think you killed him, he gets up and stabs you.
 
Trust me, I understand Calif politics all too well, usually things do not work out too well. All I posted was what was offered about the situation. Let me ask you, what are YOU doing about it?? Coming on a predator hunting site and complaining is akin to shouting at the clouds. Have you looked for any info where maybe your complaints can be heard?? I can assure you that they wont hear them here. Maybe look here posted a week ago.
 
You guys that live in California, is it the entire state that's liberal or just the coastal areas? When I drive from Vegas to Los Angeles through the mojave I always say to myself these desert towns in the middle of nowhere can't be liberal crazies but are they? I always figured there were a lot of sportsman in those areas.
 
It's the larger cities that dictate the political climate for the most part. It's the same with Nevada. Geographically the state would be red but the population of LasVegas, Reno/Carson City and their liberal transplants out weighs the population of the rest of the sparsely populated state.

There are no blue states, just blue cities. Hello from washington.
