I was at the meeting when that rule was adopted and the big issue is the dates when night hunting predators on Fed public is allowed.

If you notice they don't mention any restrictions for State Trust Land because they (commisionars) thought that would stop the night hunting on State land.

It does not as the legislation specifally allows night hunting on State land so their restrictions do not apply on State Trust Land.

The commision also went in Executive Session in the middle of the discussion which violates Wyoming's Public Meetings Act.

We will have to wait until the Wyo Legislature is back in session but word on the street is they will probably revoke the Commisions authority to regulate pretator hunting on public and State land.

The Governors office is pissed and as the bill passed by unanimous consent this is a pretty clear case of a regulatory agency thinking they get to write laws instead of the Legislature.
