Federal judge in Wisconsin suspends Lac du Flambeau fishing limitations placed on non-tribal anglers

Wisconsin’s non-tribal members trolled, used live sonar and fished for walleyes and muskies on state waters within the Lac du Flambeau (LdF) reservation on opening day after all, thanks to an injunction ordered by a federal district judge on Friday, May 1, just one day before the Saturday, May 2, opener.
The injunction was ordered by  U.S. District Judge William Conley of the United States District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin in Madison following a lawsuit filed by Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul on April 30.

Lead-tainted venison bill moving in New York legislature

What some are labeling a “back door lead ammo ban” has begun to make its way though the state legislature. 
If passed, Bill A10352/S9473, known as the “lead-free game donation act,” would prohibit the donation of wild game taken by hunters using lead ammunition. If a deer is killed by a hunter using lead ammo, it would not be allowed to be donated for human consumption. On its website, the New York State Conservation Council said that should the bill become law it would significantly reduce the amount of venison donated each year.
