So who  thinks:

 

1) Stake Holder Input during the public comment phase of management plans guides the outcome of the finally adopted plan?

 

2) The HSUS does not closely monitor New York legislation AND DEC plans? 

 

3) The DEC is not getting flooded with public comment from the antis this week about the bear and swan management draft plans?

 

Here is one of their e-mail blasts that went out to their members in New York:

This is exactly why we all need to stay or become more involved in these issues in NY.  Every hunter should also be contacting the DEC at the email they provided on their website to show support for the bear plan.  I would assume they expect a certain amount of responses from groups like HSUS, but not enough hunters pay attention to these issues or provide feedback.

      There has not been any posts about our petition on this site for NINE MONTHS. Since that time this site probably has acquired some new members who would benefit from a dove hunting season. This post is directed at those new people and others unfamiliar with this matter.
       
      In the early 1900’s most states banned wild turkey hunting and around 25 banned mourning dove hunting. Most of these bans were reversed between 1970 and 1995. Today, wild turkey hunting is allowed in 49 states and mourning dove hunting is allowed in 41 states.
       
      NY’s first modern wild turkey hunting season was in the fall of 1959; one year after the Legislature granted the Conservation Department the authority to regulate turkey hunting. The Legislature has not however, authorized the DEC to set a mourning dove hunting season.
       
      Never the less, there is an interest in dove hunting among some NY hunters and mourning dove populations can indeed sustain hunting in NY.
       
      NY Dove Hunting was created because it was apparent an organized entity with a long-term strategical approach was needed. One element of our strategy is our online petition.
       
       I am asking persons who are interested in a dove season to sign the online petition at this link:  http://nydovehunting.weebly.com/petition.html
       
      After you sign the petition we need your help in getting other hunters to sign it as well. 
       
      Many hunters have already signed our petition. The maps below show a steady upward trajectory of support for dove hunting across the state.

      We just learned of an event posted on Facebook to protest a crow hunting contest in NY.
       
      Reading the comments within the event, we see someone commenting against the hunting of rails, gallinules, and woodcock. The theme: crows, rails, gallinules, and woodcock is webless migratory game birds, which would also include mourning doves, although they were not mentioned.
       
      Another comment pushed against grouse and pheasant hunting, and created the Facebook hash tags grouse lives matter and pheasant lives matter.
       
      This is why BIRD HUNTERS need to organize and sign petitions as we ask!

      Twenty states have state pheasant stocking programs. Critics of these programs grossly mischaracterize all aspects of them, including how much they cost and who pays for them.This report is specific to NY and is part of a series we (NY Dove Hunting and The Bird Hunting Society) are publishing to provide a realistic perspective about the matter.

      Note links to 3 reports at the end of this article. Each report contains an interactive map of New York State. Click on each star to read how many mourning doves per hour were observed at that location during the Christmas Bird Count. The table below the map shows the same data.
