Pronghorn "Antelope" Hunting

These rectangles can make it appear that harvest has occurred outside of the hunt zone boundaries, but this is not the case. Hunters should be aware of all hunting regulations and should abide by hunt zone boundaries as described in Section 363, Title 14 California Code of Regulations. Hunters should also be aware of private property boundaries and have written permission from the landowner prior to accessing and hunting private property. Hunting tags do not authorize or entitle the tagholder to private property access. Do not assume that you have permission to hunt an area based upon previous hunter harvest success.

For questions regarding the Pronghorn Harvest Dashboard, please contact BigGame@wildlife.ca.gov.

VA News
It can be taken literally to mean “food that is suitable for a Jew to eat.” </p>

<p>Kosher food has roots in both the Torah (Hebrew Bible) and the Talmud (an ancient rabbinical text that is the source of Jewish religious law). Many speculate that it was an early example of a public safety code, as some of the forbidden animals (pigs and shellfish) are now known to be carriers of foodborne illnesses. Without adequate refrigeration and modern medical treatments, food poisoning may have been deadly. </p>

<p>Kosher also speaks to types of foods that may be eaten, as well as how they are raised, harvested and prepared.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Categories of kosher food</h2>

<p>There are three categories of food under Kosher guidelines:</p>

<ol>
<li>Meat (fleischig in Yiddish): this includes the flesh of kosher animals (certain cuts of ruminant animals with cloven feet, as well as domesticated fowl).</li>

<li>Dairy (milchig in Yiddish): these foods must come from an animal raised under Kosher rules for animal husbandry. They cannot be mixed with any foods designated as meat. To adhere to this, many modern Jews have separate dishes, utensils and pots for meat and dairy foods.</li>

<li>Pareve (neutral in Yiddish): this describes all other permissible foods, including eggs, nuts, fish with fins and scales, tofu, fruits, vegetables and grains. They may be mixed with foods of either category.</li>
</ol>

<p>In the spring, Jews celebrate Passover. During this time, additional prohibitions on certain grains (wheat, oats, barley, rye, spelt), or chametz, are in place. Some of these items may be permitted if they remain unleavened. In addition, many Jews who would not ordinarily observe Kosher restrictions choose to do so as a way of honoring their heritage.</p>
Living with Wildlife

Nongame mammals, black-tailed jackrabbits, muskrats, non-native red foxes, and red fox squirrels found to be injuring growing crops or other property may be taken at any time or in any manner in accordance with this code and regulations Inspection and removal shall be done by the person who sets the trap or the owner of the land where the trap is set or an agent of either by the owner or tenant of the premises or employees and agents in immediate possession of written permission from the owner or tenant thereof.

Who do I call to report wildlife that damage my property or harm my animals?

Report wildlife that cause damage to your property or harm your domestic animals to the CDFW Wildlife Incident Reporting online system or Regional Office.
Fish and Game Code § 4181

Any owner or tenant of land or property being damaged or destroyed or in danger of being damaged or destroyed by elk, bear, beaver, wild pig, wild turkeys, or gray squirrels, may apply to CDFW for a permit to kill or haze the animal.
It shall be unlawful for any person to violate the terms of any permit issued under this section.
Fish and Game Code § 4181.1 - Take Bear or Wild Pig in Act of Injuring Livestock; Reporting Requirement.

Who do I call to remove domestic animals (living or dead) from my property?

Contact your local Animal Services Division for information and assistance regarding domestic animals (living or dead) on private or public property.

Contact the Department of Transportation local office to report dead animals on or near roads.

CDFW does not remove domestic animals or livestock (living or dead) from private or public property.

Who do I call to report dead or distressed marine mammals?

Contact the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to report dead, injured, sick, entangled or stranded marine mammals at (866) 767-6114.

Timely reporting is the best way to ensure authorized responders know about an incident and can take appropriate action.
Marine mammals are protected by State and Federal law, and the Marine Mammal Protection Act.
Marine mammals include whales, dolphins, porpoises, seals, sea lions, and sea otters.

Always keep a safe distance—it’s good advice, and it's the law.
