Fish Report for 5-7-2010

I understand the Eurasian collared dove is an invasive species. Should I destroy them or let them be

5-7-2010
Carrie Wilson

Though Eurasian collared doves are invasive, you should let them be. During the hunting season there is no bag limit on them, but that is the only period of time when they can be legally taken. In addition, it is unlawful to needlessly destroy the nest or eggs of any bird (Fish and Game Code section 3503).
