Did you know, according to the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency's web
site, http://www.state.tn.us/twra/pdfs/waterfowldates.pdf, that in the
2008-2009 hunting season, you can legally bag 20 Ross' Geese a day; 15 coots
and gallinules; and 25 Virginia Rails and Soras? This is not something new.
My memory goes back decades on this. I asked why species that were so
uncommon or rare in Tennessee were listed, much less in those numbers. The
steady answer was--in case someone shoots one, it will be legal. By the
way--you can take only 2 Brant per day.
