Subject: Night Hunting Changes

Afternoon Mrs. Preuss, 

   I saw your signature and name on the hunting proposals paperwork, so I am hoping you can give me an idea on the thinking behind the night hunting proposals.  Specifically the shot size #6 and smaller requirement.  Could you shed some light on the reasoning behind this restriction?  If this stands basically you will eliminate shotguns for use on coyotes at night as #6 shot and smaller is completely unethical to use on coyotes, daytime or nighttime.  Also, am I reading the proposal correctly, .22 weapons means .222, .223 and .22-250s are legal, but .17, .204, .243 and .257s would be illegal?  Can you also shed the thoughts on that reasoning?  Thanks!!

Fred

I just got an email from Dr Martorello offering to meet up so he could explain the science behind the cougar season changes.   I will try to set something up and let you guys know.
