Just curious, Can the PGC be sued for false advertisement and illegal use of monies that they recieve from the hunters fees? I buy a license to hunt game animals. Hunting license,hint hunting. Yet they are useing my hunting fee that I pay to the PGC Game commision to fund non game animals. I didn't sign no contract saying they was allowed to use my money for non game animals nor did I know this until recent.
Now I find out the Game commision is not really a game commision but a fraudulent company who spend the majority of my money on none game animals that I am not allowed to hunt. Anyone else see the fraud from the PGC?
I dont even know where to begin.....
How long have you been hunting? did you take a HTE course, its covered there. The PGC is tasked with the management of ALL WILDLIFE and it always has been. Bald eagle, Otter, Fisher reintroduction? any of that ring a bell, All non-game species.
The Commission is responsible for managing all of Pennsylvania's wild birds and mammals.
Wildlife management is conservation in its most recognizable form. It's the process used to manage game and other wildlife populations, and includes: monitoring wildlife populations; establishing laws and regulations; setting seasons and bag limits; making habitat improvements; providing outright protection; informing and educating the public; and assessing public expectations and satisfaction. Each offers varying benefits to wildlife and Pennsylvanians.
