Thank you for your hundreds (at least 300) of letters to Washoe County Commission and also those who testified. We hear that is the most mail they ever received on any issue! At this time, Washoe County Commission refers us to Department of Wildlife to seek a ban on trapping within Washoe County Firearms Congested Areas. We are pursuing this action and will keep you updated.

Nevada Predators Under Attack
Latest Jihad on Nevada Predators by Nevada Wildlife Commission and Nevada Dept. of Wildlife. Unknown numbers of coyotes and mountain lions to be annihilated in utterly false belief that this will increase deer herds. It will not. This means more traps and poison lurking to endanger us all; increased animal suffering, and the loss of our magnificent predators who keep Nature's balance if left alone. Again, the minority of special interests over-rule the majority of humane people. Read Dr. Don Molde's brilliant proof that this strategy is ineffective.
