DEC charged with Pro-Hunting Bias October 25, 2010 Deer Advocates Demand End of Long Island Bow-Hunting Season CONTACT: Edita Birnkrant, NY Director, Friends of Animals. 917.940.2725; EMAIL MEET AT: 50 Circle Drive, off Nicolls Rd, near the stadium on the SUNY/Stony Brook campus; DIRECTIONS. New York City—Animal advocates will hold a press conference Friday, October 29, at 11 am outside the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) regional headquarters in Stony Brook, Long Island to call an end to Long Island’s hunting season on deer. Most people perceive the DEC as a neutral, scientific body, the event’s organizers say. “It’s time that the public learned the facts,” says Edita Birnkrant, New York Director of Friends of Animals. “Hunting and habitat manipulation for hunting on public lands, in parks, sanctuaries and refuges, is a violation of public trust,” said Birnkrant. Hunting and managing deer and other animals is increasingly being tagged by scientist for putting “evolution in reverse.” It makes smaller and weaker animals more likely to survive. Moreover, it causes deer populations to rebound increase in a cyclical reaction to us. Thus the deer-management paradox: The more you hunt, the more deer you get. “The DEC urges hunters to recruit new hunters, especially children, and its officials glorify hunting,” says Bill Crain, president of the East Hampton Group for Wildlife. In the DEC booklet “Hunting and Trapping: 2010-2011 Official Guide to Laws and Regulation”, Patricia Riexiner, Director of the DEC’s Division of Fish, Wildlife & Marine Resources, urges hunters to become mentors to potential young hunters and writes that bagging her own first turkey was “the intoxicating, set-the-hook kind of success that can turn a beginner into a smitten hunter.” The Guide also is filled with ads for rifles and hunting equipment. Organizations and individuals at the press conference will include Friends of Animals, the East Hampton Group for Wildlife, Wildlife Watch, Virginia Frati, pioneering wildlife rescuer, and Ron Delsener, a legendary manager in the pop music scene. People for the End of Animal Cruelty and Exploitation are among the supporters of the event. The event’s organizers observe that the DEC receives over half its funding from hunting licenses and fees and excise taxes on gun, ammo, and archery sales. “The DEC wants to expand hunting to keep its jobs. The State must change the funding arrangement if the DEC is to be a truly independent body that looks out for all life in our environment,” states Ellen Crain, Secretary-Treasurer of the East Hampton Group for Wildlife. Advocates slammed the DEC’s decision to begin the Long Island deer bow-hunting season on the first of October—a month earlier than last year. Bow hunting often results in leaving deer to die slow and painful deaths,” says Edita Birnkrant, NY Director of Friends of Animals. In the case of pheasants, the DEC’s wish to expand hunting has interfered with its mission of wildlife conservation. The DEC recognizes that pheasant populations are very low, but instead of focusing on their renewal in the wild, the DEC concentrates on stocking the birds for hunters to shoot. In the case of turkey hunting, the DEC’s pro-hunting attitude interferes with human health concerns. The DEC has added wild turkey hunting on Long Island despite the fact that turkeys are a major predator of ticks that carry Lyme disease. Friends of Animals insists that our wildlife refuges be restored as inviolate sanctuaries which allow every species there to undergo the test of nature to guarantee its survival over time. The group opposes hunting and pharmaceutical manipulation of fertility in free-living animals. Educational pamphlets about hunting, published by Friends of Animals, will be provided to the press and public.

that is just wrong if there is no other spots I will ask the to sit with me if I have room other then that sorry move on there is more spots on the river Papabear

it is illegal to sell wild game when you bring a deer to donate you are thinking it is going to the needy not to some one who can afford to buy the meat if he wants the meat fine pay for the butchering when some one donates there doing some thing to help others he was doing some thing to help him self there is another shop that gives all donated meat to the needy I would rather drive a little out of my way to make shore it go to the needy not some one who can afford the meat so another gut that can afford to help the need y make more money for his pocket and not clam it to the IRS

I got this in E-Mail and wanted to shear it Alexander B. Grannis Commissioner New York State Department of Environmental Conservation FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT NEW YORK’S NEW CROSSBOW LAW Effective date 2011 Be sure to check DEC’s web-site (www.dec.ny.gov) for updates to this FAQ The Basics Question: What is the new law, and when was the bill signed? Answer: During the 2010 Legislative Session, Assembly bill 924-e/Senate bill 6793-b was passed. Governor Paterson signed this bill into law on September 17, 2010. The bill may be read in its entirety by going to http://assembly.state.ny.us and using the bill search feature to look for “A-924-e” or “S-6793-b.” Question: Since the bill was signed, does this mean it’s in effect during the fall of 2010? Answer: No. Although the bill is now law, the major changes do not go into effect until February 1, 2011. This means that you cannot use a crossbow until license year 2011 - 2012. Question: Does the bill expire? Answer: Yes. The bill will expire on December 31, 2012, unless the Legislature and Governor decide to extend the law. Question: Is a new or separate type of license required to use a crossbow? Answer: No. You will simply need any of DEC’s licenses that allow big game hunting. If you are using a crossbow during the late muzzleloading or bowhunting seasons, you will need to have the required privileges for those late seasons. Question: Is a crossbow and a bolt defined in the new law? Answer: Yes. The crossbow must have a stock with a working safety, and a minimum limb of 17 inches. It must have a minimum peak draw weight of 100 pounds, and a maximum peak draw weight of 200 pounds. The overall length (butt of stock to front of the limbs) must be at least 24 inches. A bolt (the term used for the “arrow” shot from a crossbow) must be at least 14 inches long (excluding the point). Use of Crossbows Question: I heard that I may use a crossbow during the early bowhunting season if I am hunting on private land. Is this true? Answer: No. Crossbows may not be used by anyone during the early bowhunting season. Question: When can I use a crossbow to hunt? Answer: Only during the REGULAR firearms seasons in the Northern and Southern Zone, during the Suffolk County special firearms season, and during the LATE muzzleloading and bowhunting seasons; starting ONLY in license year 2011 - 2012, and continuing until December 31, 2012. Question: May I use a crossbow during the late bowhunting season? Answer: Yes. You may use a crossbow during the LATE special seasons (bowhunting and muzzleloading) after the close of the regular season. Question: I have a note from my doctor regarding an injury that prevents me from using a regular bow. May I use a crossbow during the early bowhunting seasons? Answer: No. The new law does not allow a disabled person (temporary or permanent) to use a crossbow during the early bowhunting seasons. Question: I am disabled and I am unable to hold and pull a regular bow. May I use a crossbow? Answer: No. In the past, you could obtain a special permit to hunt with a longbow (of any type) equipped with a special modification to draw and hold the bow string. The new law allows DEC to adopt regulations to permit the modified longbow. In 2011, DEC will prepare regulations to implement the new law and a special permit will no longer be needed. Question: I am 70 years old (or older). May I use a crossbow during the early bowhunting seasons? Answer: No. The new law does not allow a senior hunter to use a crossbow during the early bowhunting seasons. Question: May I use a crossbow in the bowhunting only areas of New York, such as Westchester County, parts of Albany and Monroe counties, and Suffolk County)? Answer: No. However, you may use a crossbow in Suffolk County during the January firearms season for deer. Question: May I use a crossbow during the early muzzleloading seasons in the Northern Zone? Answer: No. Question: May I use a crossbow to hunt small game, such as wild turkeys? Answer: No. Crossbows may only be used to hunt big game (deer and bear). Question: May I use a crossbow at night? Answer: No. Question: Are the restrictions on the use of crossbows the same as a firearm or bow? Answer: Yes. A crossbow may not be loaded in or on a motor vehicle, it may not be discharged within 500 feet of an occupied building or school, it may not be discharged across a highway, or in areas where the discharge is presently prohibited for a bow or firearm. Question: What tags would a crossbow hunter use to tag their deer? Answer: During the regular season, a crossbow hunter could use a Deer Management Permit (DMP) or their regular big game tag (antlered deer only). During the late bowhunting and muzzleloading season, crossbow hunters could use a DMP or their special season bow and muzzleloading tags (either-sex or antlerless only). Additionally, crossbow hunters could use their unfilled regular season tag for deer of either sex during the late bow or muzzleloading season. Question: Are Junior Hunters allowed to use a crossbow to hunt deer or bear? Answer: Yes, once they complete the crossbow safety training. Question: What kind of broadhead may I use on my crossbow? Answer: You must use the same type of broadhead lawful for hunting big game with a longbow. The broadhead must have two or more cutting edges, it may not be barbed, and it must be at least 7/8 inches wide across the cutting surfaces. Special Training Requirements Question: Are there any special training requirements before I can use a crossbow to hunt deer or bear? Answer: Yes. The new law requires you to complete training in the safe use of a crossbow. Question: Where can I obtain this training? Answer: DEC will develop a training program for new hunters using the existing hunter education program. For current hunters, DEC will develop on-line and home study materials on crossbow safety. DEC will announce when these materials are available. Question: Are Junior Hunters allowed to use a crossbow to hunt deer or bear? Answer: Yes, once they complete the crossbow safety training. SUMMARY • You cannot use a crossbow in 2010 -2011. You must wait until license year 2011 – 2012. • You may only use crossbows during a regular firearms season, during the Suffolk County special firearms season, and during the late muzzleloading and late bowhunting seasons. • There are no special provisions for the use of crossbows for disabled persons or hunters 70 years old (or older). • The existing law about the use of “modified longbows” will be implemented differently. Instead of a special permit, DEC will adopt regulations to allow the use of modified longbows. • This law expires on December 31, 2012, unless the Legislature and Governor agree to an extension. • DEC believes that crossbows should be available to all hunters during all seasons in which other bowhunting equipment is allowed. In this manner, crossbows may meaningfully increase hunters’ ability to enjoy the bowhunting experience, and can play a valuable role in deer population management.
