Hate to be the one to ask this but use hounds how? Like to track/tree them or however that goes, or like a fox hunt where they rip the animal to slithers 'till it collapses? Hope noone thinks i'm an anti but just wandering 'cause I am just a little biest about predator hunting. Never much cared for predator hunting, in fact I can't stand it, but I know it's got to be done. I just think that the animal's suffering should be kept to a minimum if at all possible.

Done. Hunted bear over dogs last fall in Wisconsin. An amazing experience that I will never forget. Will be going for Bobcats next when I have enough points to draw. I tell anyone that will listen how special it is to hunt with bear dogs.

Done, hopefully you guys can beat this. I think as outdoors people we all need to re-think how we fight these kind of things because we seem to be losing more than we win.

One needs to be personally contacting their representatives rather than signing petitions.

done 986 out of 1000 Good luck with this one, unfortunately we dont have enough money to keep the things we like to do. The environmentalists have extremely deep pockets and donations coming in every day.
We had a similiar problem with them in NC they got what they wanted and had the judges in their back pocket. The beaches are now closed to driving due to the activist wanting to protect 12 or less breeding birds. As soon as they see any sign of these birds breeding the immediately close the beaches and the only place they look for the birds is where the sportsmen are trying to fish. The fact that the entire economy of the area is due to beach driving and surf fishing was of no concern to them, milliions of dollars of tourism are lost each season.
I can't even begin to tell you how much time and money we spent trying to fight for our RIGHT only to be defeated.
I truly hope you can get this turned around and while it did absolutely no good to speak to our congressmen and women it may help for you.
In the end the only thing that matters to these politicians is who is contributing the most money, not the cause.
sorry for the rant but common sense is unknown to these people.
