LAST EDITED ON Mar-29-11 AT 10:41PM (MST)[p]I did not read this to say "No more Trapping". Am I missing something?

"SB226 Makes it unlawful for a person to trap a fur-bearing mammal within a certain distance of an occupied dwelling under certain circumstances."

I think what he is getting at is if they pass this, where does it stop? It just makes it that much easier to change stuff later down the road, They start with a little and then before you know it, were Utah with a 48 hour check law, then Arizona where you can only use live traps, then several other states. NO TRAPPING .. period

LAST EDITED ON Mar-31-11 AT 00:02AM (MST)[p]I am not for or against this, but you bring up a 48 hr check period? Who the hell would skin a stinking azz dog or cat after setting the trap 2 days before?? I have killed dogs one evening, kept them in the truck for a contest and puked just dragging them out of the damn thing I hear you on your concerns of where the gov starts and stops.

I think the way they were going with this is to stop trapping. The original proposed wording that I heard was something like making it illegal to trap within one mile of any road or trail!! That is just insane.

cj, trapping laws in nevada are 96 hour checks, and i have never had a dead cat or dog. they are very strong animals. yes i hear ya having them on a contest they do get stinkin. but trapping they are always alive and fresh..
