Wildlife Check Lane Set Saturday
( KNZA )--The Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism and local law enforcement officials will conduct a joint checkpoint in northeast Kansas on Saturday.
The regular firearm deer season started today ( Wednesday ) and upland game bird seasons are underway.
The checkpoint is intended to help enforce state and federal wildlife laws, as well as the state’s driver’s licensing laws.
Local law enforcement officers will operate the first stage of the checkpoint to be sure drivers are properly licensed to be driving. If a driver does not have a valid license, appropriate enforcement actions will be taken.
Occupants of vehicles in the first check lane will be asked if they are hunters or are transporting wildlife. If yes in either case, drivers will be directed to a nearby check lane where Wildlife and Parks officers will check for required licenses and permits, count the game and gather biological, harvest, and hunter success information.
