Bill 672 requiring a 24 hour trap check has been introduced

http://www.leg.state.or.us/07reg/measpdf/sb0600.dir/sb0672.intro.pdf

If you want to help stop this bill you can join the OTA

This will be a tough bill to fight.

We need much member support - Low cost membership to an outfit that is on top of the situation

PM me for contact info

I think the most important things you can do are -

1. let other trappers know about this
2. contact your legislator
3. inform other people that are sympathetic to trapping (ranchers, growers, timber, etc) and have them contact their legislatures.

Here is a link to find and contact your legislator

Bill,
What type of traps are they saying you need to check every 24?

From what I understand every trap from rats to cats to coyotes etc. Its a bad thing - specially for cats and coyotes east side.

From the President of the OTA...

Trappers GREAT NEWS SB 672 the 24 hour trap check bill supported by the HSUS is DEAD!

Thanks ehunter- next time I'll do it. We can use the support.
