Call for help/support from Nevada falconers:![]()

Nevada needs your help! After 25 years we finally have a senator that proposed a bill to allow eagle falconry in Nevada. It's meeting some opposition (from people who wrongly think we're trying to take eagles out of the wild in Nevada). Please use the attached link to offer your vote of support and comment on Senate Bill 125 (SB125). If you are an individual, please vote and comment here: www.leg.state.nv.us/App/Opinions/81st2021/ If you are a leader or official spokesperson of a falconry club, we would greatly appreciate it if you would write a letter of support and email it to roberta.kokx@sen.state.nv.us. ![]()
