Senator Carrico is the chief sponsor of this bill and he represents SW
Virginia (his office is in Galax). I imagine this bill is more about farmers'
claims that Black Vultures take lambs, although I don't believe this has
been proven to happen very often. (I personally find it questionable.)
I hope folks will write to this senator. He can be contacted at
_district40@senate.virginia.gov_ (mailto:district40@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)
Thanks!
Sincerely,
Marlene

Hi Linda,
It is all about Dominion Power and their problem with the Black Vultures.
Read about it on
www.dgif.virginia.gov/wildlife/dutch-gap-black-vulture-management/
They have been killing them all along so I don't know what this bill
would add to that.
Thanks
