Legislative Update: Florida
After months of public testimony, four public meetings across the State, and two days of meetings in Tallahassee, today the Florida Wildlife Commission took the recommendation of Capt. Kara Hooker and decided AGAINST any changes to the current regulations regarding Elephant Rides, Interactions with Exotics and Wildlife, and Non Barrier Interactions.
In addition Capt. Hooker recommended No New Rules be put in place.
The FWC Commission took her recommendation and passed it unanimously.
There WILL be some Administrative changes but nothing affecting the current rules or enforcement of them!
