Rabbit hunting changes?

This is a good place to inform fellow hunters about bills and other legislation that may jeopardize our rights to hunt and free cast our hounds.

Rabbit hunting changes?

Post by Hunter »

Found this on another forum and in this article from the DNR it talks of lengthening rabbit season.

Problem is when I called the DNR Fish and Wildlife department I was told to contact my State Rep. When I tried to ask another question I was treated very poorly. She said please hang on before I even got my question out. When she came back on she said that she had spoke with her supervisor and I needed to contact me State Rep and have a good day. I spoke up very quickly and assured her I was not trying to cause trouble just needed a little info. I barely got her to answer a simple question at that point which was so are you saying that the DNR does not control the hunting rules and she said that is correct. Now I am puzzled.

If you can make sense of this and can verify when it goes into effect and where we are able to hunt please post that info and your source of that info back on this thread.
Thanks, Paul
