AZGFD

If you’re referring to what WM’s make now they start off way above minimum wage

AZGFD doesn't get Junetenth off,

Unfortunately I think the data has shown it’s quite a bit more than a “few” people abusing the privilege.

Looks like cards should be charged by the morning of the 17th.

Looks like the crossbow issue is coming back. Request for Approval to Apply Rotenone in Knoll Lake. Presenter: Julie Carter, Aquatic Wildlife Branch Chief. The Department will present to the Commission the Department’s request to apply rotenone in Knoll Lake to remove illegally stocked Green Sunfish. Looks like the department will be killing all fish in Knoll Lake.

Looks like the Vols are done.

Rock rattlesnake, Twin-spotted, Ridge-nosed and Massasauga are protected.

4 of AZ rattlesnake species are protected and Mojave’s aren’t one of them.

U of A wins Big 12 tournament, wins Eugene regional off to supers. ASU?

For now. The same thing happened on the trail camera ban. It just took a little longer but in the end trail cameras were banned.

How about the one horned bighorn sheep hunts for Pioneers

There’s always handgun and muzzleloader

It means the department is asking the commission to put on hold the crossbow permit change until they can further evaluate. My guess is the commission will do just that.

They’ve probably all been laid off

I missed his presentation but from what someone else said he had a very well prepared presentation that debunked CBD’s concerns

Wasn’t there but watched what I could, basically they let CBD spokesman talk and then AZGFD biologist gave his presentation. Next hours of blue card speakers for and against and then 3 seconds for the commission to deny both petitions.

Looks like the commission just unanimously voted to deny the 2 petitions by the CBD, we’ll see where the CBD goes from here.

Yes, that’s how leg hold traps were banned on public lands. I believe it was Prop 200

This is just the first step. The big battle will be when this becomes a proposition on the ballot.

Unit 1 archery was basically a 6 day hunt, Friday to Wednesday and then closed. It went to a draw for a reason and should have never gone back to OTC. At least AZGFD was smart enough to now put it back to a draw. As for bear it is set up exactly like the deer. It doesn’t matter if the sow quota was 1 for a unit if 15 sows were killed opening day it still wouldn’t close until sundown on the following Wednesday.

They rotate the units, will be a different unit next year
