<br />KS: Ah… <br /> <br />AA: Like is there any animals, is it a low number, high number? <br /> <br />KS: Yeah, I don’t really, because the population for sheep is so low up there I don’t… <br /> <br />AA: Yeah… <br /> <br />KS: I don’t know how many there are. I would – just looking at how many animals we are continuing to <br />be harvested and that are taken during our aerial eradications I would guess that there’s about 300 <br />sheep, maybe a little more. Pigs I have no idea. But a lot of people do a lot like too much pig hunting <br />up there. But if somebody were to go and they wanted to harvest above what the limit is now we just <br />figured we’d allow them to do so. <br /> <br />AA: Right. Any other questions from the Commissioners for Kanalu? <br /> <br />BL: Brian Ley – District 4. Hey, Kanalu, has there ever been an issue between the game hunters and the <br />bird hunters \[unclear\] doing that? Has there been conflict or we just play in the same \[unclear\]? <br /> <br />KS: Most of you’re playing the safety card, um, before, my understanding is that before my time the rule <br />that I’m proposing to change is what the rule was and so for safety reasons they restricted mammal <br />hunting to above the tree line, um, and I think most hunters – I could be wrong and if anybody’s out <br />there thinks I’m wrong let me know, but I think most hunters kind of grew up with that so they kind <br />of follow that already anyways and maybe they didn’t know that the rule changed that would allow <br />them to hunt below tree line, um, and so I’m just trying to put it back \[unclear\] how I understood that <br />it was important. <br /> <br />BL: I have another quick question I just thought up. Any thoughts on allowing the bird hunters to harvest <br />the pigs, you know, with to allow buckshot, cause I know with the high grass and everything and I, <br />you know, consistently run into pigs at a close range but not allowed to harvest them – you guys ever <br />think about allowing the bird hunters to harvest the pigs. <br /> <br />KS: I’ve never thought about it – I guess if it’s something you guys are really interested in I can, yeah, I <br />might be open to it. <br /> <br />BL: \[Unclear\] using dogs and not legally \[unclear\] use dogs anyways… You know, the grass is so tall, I <br />mean, the only time you see a pig is when \[unclear\] with the dog. <br /> <br />KS: Right. I’m open to a discussion about it, yeah, it’s not something I thought about so. <br /> <br />BL: OK. That’s all I have, thank you. <br /> <br />RD: Abraham, I have a few questions. District – 1. <br /> <br />AA: Alright. <br /> <br />RD: Yeah, Kanalu, isn’t there chucker hunting above the tree line? <br />4 <br /> <br /> <br />
