CALL TO ACTION! - Taffy - 11-09-2022
The Washington State Department of Wildlife (WDFW) has proposed a ban of packgoats on 12 wildlife management areas. This would ban packgoats on roughly 68% of the PUBLIC lands the WDFW manages!
Please read about this on the NAPgA website and comment by November 23rd to have your comments included in the Director's packets. https://www.napga.org/2022/11/09/proposed-packgoat-ban/
If this proposed regulation is adopted it will quickly spread to other states. You do not need to be a Washington state resident to comment.
