Of course the morons who came up with this idiotic bill are from NYC.
BILL NUMBER: S7927A
SPONSOR: HOYLMAN-SIGAL TITLE OF BILL:
An act to amend the environmental conservation law, in relation to protecting wolves
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:
To provide additional protections for wolves migrating into New York State and to require the department of environmental conservation to collect genetic data on large canids in order to more fully understand the presence of wolves in the state.
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:
Section one amends the environmental conservation law by adding a new section that includes the following provisions: Requires all wild canids (this includes coyotes and wolves) taken in the state to be checked and tagged; Requires DNA analysis be performed on taken canids that are over fifty pounds to determine if the canid is a wolf; if such a canid is determined to be a wolf, the DEC would impose a moratorium on canid hunting; the DEC shall submit a report to the legislature on the status of wolves in the state; and, the DEC shall modify its hunting and trap- ping training curriculum to include information on wolves and reflect this legislation.

Just say canids. Those NYC morons wouldn't be able to tell a red fox from a coyote if it (hopefully) bit them in the rump.

This bill would also authorize DEC to impose a "temporary" moratorium on the killing of wild canids on specific areas in order to protect any federal or state protected wolves.
We saw how long "temporary" lasted with the otters.
Also, we have seen the restrictions imposed upon Maine fisher trappers because of the presence of Federal protected lynx.

I am so fed up with New York City morons. They know nothing about trapping and hunting. Idiots with a license to run the state. They probably are the same dumb asses that come to the Adirondacks, specifically my small town, and try to turn things upside down. Stay below the blue line. We don’t need or want you up here. Pathetic jerks
