So there's a good likelihood my brother will have to give up his falconry in 10 days. California has failed to enact some federal legislation regarding falconry, and they have 10 days to comply. If they don't, the Federal government will euthanize all birds in the state being kept by falconers, as California would then be allowing an illegal act.
I feel awful about this; this is one of the first things my brother had gotten into on his own thy he's really excited about...he loves this so much. He always is the runner up, and always seems to get the leftover projects/interests that nobody stick with. And we've been helping him get all his gear; there's a falcon house being built in he backyard that now may never be used....
Sorry for the downer thread...just feeling down for my little bro![]()
