Thinkpad That was the opinion of almost everyone who gathered at the Clarion Hotel here Thursday night to urge the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to adopt unusually liberal rules for hunting greater snow geese.
Not surprisingly, over 85 percent of the mallards observed during the survey were counted in northeast Arkansas where the greatest amount of habitat is available. "Snow goose numbers (170, 770 this year, 332, 850 last year) were about half of the November 2006 survey total, and the greatest number of these birds was seen in the northeast and east central survey regions. fronted geese in the November survey increased substantially again this year, totaling 58, 660 compared to the 2006 estimate of 31, 905 geese, " Naylor stated.
Microsoft The service proposes to let hunters use recorded and imitation goose calls to lure the birds and unplugged shotguns that allow hunters to fire more than three shots at a time. The service also proposes to issue a conservation order that would extend the hunting season into the spring migration period.
However, the total Rocky Mountain Population (RMP) of geese, which in addition to Utah includes southern Alberta, Montana, Idaho, Wyoming and western Colorado, is up from last year. That's important if you hunt geese after Nov. 1. "Many of the geese we hunt after the first of November migrate into Utah from the north, " Aldrich says. "Based on how well the geese in the RMP are doing, I think we'll have a good goose season this year."
Laptop Computers Mike Ford, of Bridgeton, said snow geese are smart birds, so any help is appreciated. Farmers hire him to hunt greater snow geese that gather by the thousands to eat sod, cord grass and salt hay on farms in Cumberland County.

Notebooks Greater snow goose populations have increased from about 25,400 birds in 1965 to about 860,000 birds this year, said James Kelley, a wildlife biologist with the service out of Minnesota.
Lenovo The special hunting rules could be final as soon as next spring, Kelley said. They would remain in effect until the snow goose population drops to 500,000.
Hard Drive The birds' fast-rising population probably is due to the availability of crops along the birds' migration route, Kelley said.
Travelstar The service is concerned that geese are overgrazing their breeding grounds in the eastern Arctic, turning them into barren mudflats. The population risks crashing, either from starvation or from avian cholera, a wildlife disease that could threaten other bird species as well, he said.
Gateway Bill Sparkes of Somers Point was the only one among two dozen people gathered for the hearing to speak against more liberal hunting rules.
Laptop Parts He suggested that the service is presenting a distorted picture of the situation to create more opportunities for hunters.
Software "I'm here representing the 93 percent of people in this country who don't engage in blood sports, or killing for fun," Sparkes said.
Hard Drives Any overabundance of snow geese has been caused by wildlife officials sanctioning hunts for raccoons and foxes that would have kept down the goose numbers naturally, he said.
Electronics "You kill one species, you are going to increase another," Sparkes said.
Canon Controlling rabies is a reason often cited for hunting raccoons, but rabies isn't a real public-health threat, he said.
Desktop Pc That statement drew a rebuke from Steven Stack, a waterfowl hunter and EMT who said the rabies threat is real and so is the need to control predators.
Desktop Computers Other hunters suggested that the service could go further, perhaps opening all of the Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge to hunting, so the geese would have nowhere to hide.
Think Pad Steve Deterini suggested that the service let hunters set out bait for snow geese and hunt them on Sundays.
Repair The current snow goose season is 107 days, ending March 9, with a 15-bird daily limit and no hunting on Sundays.
Data Recovery The state Division of Fish and Wildlife generally supports the service's proposal, said Paul Castelli, a division wildlife biologist.
Cisco The grazing of too many snow geese is not only damaging crops, but is causing long-term damage to the state's salt marshes, he said.
Keyboard "We are pleased the service has taken this problem seriously," Castelli said.
Monitor The service in 1999 held hearings around the country, including one at the Richard Stockton College of New Jersey, to gather recommendations on what, if anything, should be done about the increasing snow-goose population.
Desktop The service formally proposed its plan for more liberal hunting rules last month. The plan also would apply to lesser snow geese, which are uncommon in New Jersey, and Ross' geese, a West Coast bird.
Infosys Thursday's hearing was the fifth of eight hearings scheduled around the country.
