ACTION ALERT UPDATE: Bear Bill

The 2009 Wisconsin Bear Bill, AB 371, has passed the State Assembly on a unanimous vote and is now ready for a vote in the State Senate.

The Bear Bill will make several important changes for our sport:
1  Allow a try it for free? weekend for bear dog training in August
2  Raises the age eligibility for the fee exemption from 12 to 16
3  Allows for a back up shooter
4  Allows continued Class B participation in the hunting season, even after a harvest tag is filled

Please call your legislators now to tell them of your support.   Your message is simple  My name is Susie Jones from Park Falls.  I am a bear hunter and I support AB 371, the Bear Bill, and would hope that Senator Smith would support it too.?

If you don't know your legislators you can find them by visiting
