Public Comment: Means and Methods for the Take of Nongame Wildlife
The online public comment period is 11:00 a.m. December 19, 2013, through 05:00 p.m. January 22, 2014.
"The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) proposes an amendment to §65.328, concerning Means and Methods. The proposed amendment would prohibit the use of noxious or toxic substances to disturb or collect nongame wildlife (popularly referred to as “gassing”) and the possession of nongame wildlife collected by the use of such substances, and would provide an exemption for persons engaged in structural or agricultural pest control activities."
This is a very proactive step forward to protect our venomous snakes in Texas. Please, if you are a Texas resident, take some time to comment in support of this proposed amendment.
