Ninth Circuit Strikes Down California’s Background Check Requirement for Ammo Purchases in NRA Backed Case

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that California’s law requiring a background check for each ammunition purchase violates the Second Amendment in Rhode v. Bonta—a case backed by the National Rifle Association and California Rifle and Pistol Association.

The Ninth Circuit applied the text-and-history test set forth in the NRA’s landmark Supreme Court victory, NYSRPA v. Bruen.

“The Ninth Circuit has ruled California’s ammunition law violates the Second Amendment and is unconstitutional,” said NRA Executive Vice President and Chief Executive Officer Doug Hamlin. “This is just one example of the NRA-backed cases in which we fight for the constitutionally protected rights of NRA members and law-abiding gun owners in California.” Read more

Mid-Summer Update on Potential Tree Issues

This mid-summer tree issues update comes from the Wisconsin DNR and highlights multiple issues and insects that may also occur across the landscape in Michigan.

One issue is heavy seed crops from maple trees this year. When trees produce so many seeds, it reduces the amount of energy available for producing leaves. As a result, leaves can appear smaller and off-color into the summer. With fewer leaves produced, these trees will continue to look very thin throughout this year’s growing season.

The maple petiole borer is an exotic sawfly insect whose larvae bore into maple leaf stems or petioles, primarily sugar maple, damaging the petiole tissues and causing the leaves to drop prematurely.

The ocellate gall midge larvae feed on the leaves of maple trees causing the leaf to develop telltale colorful, concentric circles in that area of the leaf. Problems that might look similar include fungal leaf diseases and are cosmetic issues that do not impact the health of the tree.

The woolly elm aphid causes leaves to curl at the edges and develop a characteristic wrinkled appearance. Chemical control is generally not necessary and is rarely effective, because the aphids are protected within the curled leaf of the elms.

The dusky birch sawfly feeds on white birch and occasionally river birch and yellow birch. The defoliation is typically light, with a few dozen leaves per tree being eaten. This defoliation is only problematic on young seedlings with few leaves.

Invasive red swamp crayfish found in pond at Wolf Lake State Fish Hatchery

The Michigan Department of Natural Resources recently confirmed the presence of invasive red swamp crayfish in an outdoor muskellunge rearing pond at Wolf Lake State Fish Hatchery in Mattawan, Van Buren County, Michigan.

After stocking muskellunge in Thornapple Lake in Barry County and Lake Hudson in Lenawee County, hatchery staff found the carcasses of two unusual crayfish in the collection basket of Wolf Lake Hatchery Pond 20 (where the fish were reared) after the pond was drained. Crayfish traps were quickly deployed in Pond 20 and two adjacent ponds, resulting in the capture of one live, positively identified red swamp crayfish in Pond 20.

A red swamp crayfish being held between a person's thumb and forefinger. Raised red bumps on its claws help to identify the species.Though native to the southern U.S., red swamp crayfish have been prohibited in Michigan since 2014 and considered invasive in the state because of their ability to aggressively outcompete native crayfish for food and habitat, their high reproductive rate and their destructive burrowing along shorelines that can destabilize banks and infrastructure.
