I challenge anyone to come up with a suggestion we haven't looked at. |
I do urge caution but do not be overly concerned if you see a mountain lion. You are pretty much safe everywhere. If you look at the risk factor you are more likely to be killed driving to a hiking trail than being attacked on a trail. |
I don't know what will be in the new regulations package. We gathered information from the public last week from Central Valley anglers in Yuba City and will conduct another open session this week. |
If the stock isn't health for future generations, there will be nothing to fish anyway. |
In the rural areas, if a property owner has a hunting license, they can go ahead and shoot coyotes. However, in more urban settings, that is not an option for obvious reasons. |
It isn't the policy of the Department of Fish and Game to issue free fishing licenses to anybody because of age. It is just something we aren't authorized to do. |
It's not one of our highest priorities to hunt down everyone with restricted species. You have to weigh the public safety issue against everything else. |
People are moving out into their habitat, so we are seeing more instances of lions wandering into areas you haven't seen before. We try to preach caution: Learn to exist with them. |
People think of deer as Bambi, cute and cuddly, but they can be extremely dangerous in certain circumstances. |
The slot limit will revert to the former 72- to 46-inch framework from early June through Dec. 31. We're only restricting the slot limit during the time when female sturgeon are spawning. |
There doesn't seem to be anything that really led to the attack. |
There have only been 15 attacks on humans, by about 13 lions, since 1890. They're pretty rare. People aren't their primary prey, thankfully. |
They were eagerly awaiting the decision. We're not giving up. The project was stopped on time. Part of the problem is the Forest Service hadn't conducted the proper NEPA (National Environmental Policy Act) requirements. We're leaving about five people out there. We had literally tons of equipment in there. That stuff's coming back out. It is just a logistical decision. Otherwise it would all have to be in there for a week. |
They were removed from the home because they were in poor condition, ... Now they are going back to an un-permitted facility. |
They're pretty much anywhere that's been urbanized. |
