Sale of Ducks Stops After Today
After today it will be unlawful to sell ducks as the month of low suspension ends tonight. Hunters facing high costs have sold some ducks, yet most were spared despite the prior November to December suspension. A weekly limit of 35 prevented ruthless shooting, and violators will face severe action. Wardens will monitor after the relaxation ends. Fees for selling birds range from 25 to 150 dollars depending on case severity. A court conviction carries a heavy sentence.
