Save NYS Outdoors Traditions

A terrible bill.

These contests are a part of life in rural areas. Do the sponsors even KNOW what the contest involve?

NYs lawmakers are over-reaching

This bill is wrong.

Please allow the sports of hunting with dogs to continue in NYS. Tournaments help educate our youth. Field trials and competition help hone skills and provide exercise for all participants.

Please stop this nonsense

This is damaging both to community and wildlife. The competitions promote hunters and fisherman to be selective on there take. Letting the young have a chance to grow. It also promotes pride, patience and survival skills. The community takes pride in the people that take part in these events.

Tired of this state trying to stop all forms of hunting. It is a tradition that needs to be continued and competition builds skills

Please save our tradition

This is absurd and needs to be thrown out!

These anti hunting laws and anti gun laws need to stop

This is ridiculous.

Just another reason to split nyc and it’s politicians away from the rest of N.Y.

Please don't take our communities traditions away. Instead you should be supporting it

Please protect our outdoor hunting, fishing and trapping traditions and activities. Our children’s future desperately needs these sports and activities for so many reasons, including a love of nature and therefore the next generation will know a need to protect nature and open spaces. Among so many other reasons.

I see nothing wrong in enjoying a weekend rabbit derby with friends and family. Why don't they focus on bringing jobs back to New York and curbing taxes. The hunting community in New York spends a lot of money each year on licenses, guns, ammo, and other gear.

Hunting with our without dogs is still in accordance with all environmental conservation laws and hunting laws. Wildlife management is important for seeking the balance of populations, hunters are the best conservationists for doing so.

Just another misguided bill proposed by know nothing N.Y. City Reps. that has P.E.T.A. lining their pockets.

I'm from Vt. My signature probably carries no weight here but I can't sit by and not sign this.

More BD from the city!
