WOW!!! Your state sure has to modify its laws. We have hunting/trapping seasons, too, BUT they are waived if an animal is suspected of having rabies. In this case, if a property owner shoots the animal, the Department of Health must be called to make arrangements to get the animal (usually via the Animal Warden) so they can test it. If trapped, the Animal Warden has to get it from the trap--then deal with the DOH. A person would only end up in court if he/she trapped or shot an animal suspected of having rabies and did not then report it, just got rid of it. Come to think of it, one can also end up in court for feeding feral cats on one's property unless one can prove the cats were vaccinated for rabies. This is a new law, about 2 years old. A lot of us used to feed these cats in the winter--cheap, easy way to keep a mini-army on one's property to catch mice. No, Bob, one could not play dumb and say they shot a deer because it was suspected of having rabies :o) Farmers, however, have special licenses to shoot deer all year but only on their own farms. Lynn
