What You Can Do to Help
Here are some of the things you can do:
- Get Involved:
Help us spread the word that trapping laws need to
be reformed. Contact everyone you know who cares about wildlife and
urge them to act now to preserve our wildlife.
- Stay informed:
You can sign-up to receive bulletins which will
keep you informed and which will tell you how you can help to save
our wildlife. Show your support and help reform trapping laws in New
Mexico. Use this link to ask to be put on our e-mail list.
- Join Up:
There is power in numbers. Groups like the Sierra Club
and those with links on this page need your support. These people care about
wildlife and our natural environment and they act to preserve and
protect it.
- Be Heard: Here is a link to the
New Mexico Game and Fish
Commissioners who control trapping laws in New Mexico. Please be
courteous, but make your opinion known to them by e-mailing,
writing, calling or visiting or them at their offices.
- Report Your Encounters with Traps:
If you have ever had an
encounter with a trap on public lands in New Mexico, please share
your experience! We are compiling information about trapping
incidents. You can remain anonymous. Please write to
notraps@kitcarson.net.
During trapping season, with prices high, trappers are out on our public lands and so
are their traps. So be careful.
