My friend Renny28 posted this question on another site (see below).
Can someone give me the correct answer to relay to Renny?
Thanks.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On the conditions and authorizations sheet that I received with my cat permit it states:
"it is unlawful under this permit to take or attempt to take a bobcat through the use of an artificial light."
Under the general hunting regulations in the hunting digest is states:
"A person hunting racoons, skunks, opposums, bobcats, weasels, foxes, and coyotes on foot may use a handheld light, including a gun-mounted light."
I know after I left the PPHA and mentioned this on a forum that some individuals took the time to fight this and get it changed so we could use a light to hunt cats. Has something changed that I'm not aware of???
