This is just an attempt to end the sport in general.  Hound hunters have no representation within DWR or the state although they make up half of the state itself.  Our governor, whom many hound hunters voted for, has misrepresented hunting in general with a personal agenda to further still hunting alone, filling a board with mostly still hunting advocates and no representation for hound hunters what so ever. . The so called complaints and studies (ex. Youngkin Study) are set up to receive intended answers to achieve the sole outcome of ending the sport for good. Common sense tells us dogs can not read or obey property signs.  DWR complains they have inadequate resources to handle these complaints but hound hunting complaints are a very small portion of hunting complaints and are generally in a small portion of areas .  Rather than end a heritage and way of life for many, propose something that will give DWR the resources needed to police these certain areas better. Most of these complaints come from non lifetime residents of VA, but those whom choose to move here only to change our way of life. This proposal was already shot down by politicians which shows DWR's and Governor Youngkin's bias and determination to end this sport and further their own agendas.  I vote no to this proposal and any other proposal changing the current lasws regarding hound hunting.
