Illinois Governor Vetoes Bobcat Hunting Bill

Posted by firstforwildlife on January 16, 2015 · Leave a Comment

bobcat4

bobcat2On January 11, Illinois governor, Pat Quinn showed his true colors when it comes to conservation and vetoed the bobcat hunting bill. Safari Club International criticizes Governor Pat Quinn for vetoing House Bill 4226, a bill that would have allowed bobcat hunting in Illinois for the first time in 40 years. Governor Quinn’s veto ignores necessary science-based management of bobcats in Illinois. Removing professionals from wildlife management will allow bobcat populations to remain unchecked and as a result other wild game populations will decrease and livestock losses will continue to increase in the state.

HB 4226, which was supported by wildlife professionals at the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR), would have amended the wildlife code to allow hunters to kill one bobcat in a season that would run November 1st to February 15th. The bill passed overwhelmingly in the House by a vote of 91-20 while the vote was closer in the Senate, 30-19. Read more

Save Your Hearing & Gain Huge Advantage with PRO EARS

One of the “10 Commandments” of firearm safety is for shooters to wear eye and ear protection. Yet, many who would never violate any other firearm safety commandment routinely hunt and shoot with nothing to shield their ears. Perhaps they don’t fully understand the permanent risk to hearing each time a gun is fired. More likely, hunters know they need to be able to hear well to hunt effectively. They don’t want anything that diminishes how well they can hear a deer, turkey or other animal approaching.

Pro Ears is the perfect solution. Pro Ears protects hearing while still allowing users to have a normal conservation in the blind or at the range, and Pro Ears even amplifies low decibel sound to give hunters a huge advantage in the field. Pro Ears comes in four series of earmuff style hearing protection, plus a behind-the-ear amplifier with compression and a custom-fit
model worn in the ear. Read more
