248 APPENDIX 



REGULATIONS APPLICABLE GENERALLY IN PROVINCES AND 



STATES 



The Provincial and State laws generally prohibit possession or sale or 

 transportation in the close season for game or fish, except that after the 

 open season closes a short time is allowed in some states and provinces, but 

 in many export is illegal at any time. 



Netting game fish or catching or killing them by drugs, explosives, 

 etc., or by any other means than hook and line is forbidden. 



Insectivorous and song birds, and nests and eggs of all birds, except 

 birds of prey, are protected at all times. 



Netting or snaring game birds, or killing by any other mode than shooting 

 is illegal. 



Night shooting is generally prohibited. 



Streams or lakes leased to individuals or clubs cannot be fished by the 

 public, though in many cases persons properly introduced may obtain fishing. 



Licences should be kept in personal possession of the sportsman at all 

 times, as they are subject to production on demand of game wardens.
