Wildlife restoration bills move through Senate
The Senate advances three bills aimed at large scale wildlife restoration. The Walcott-Kleberg Duck Stamp Bill would raise about 1 million dollars yearly for rehabilitation and preservation, directing 90 percent to habitat and protection, with 10 percent for administration.
