On another note, this is how non-native species get introduced to places they don't have any business being in the first place. Some genius thinks its a good idea to have some exotic pets and the next thing you know you have an epidemic on your hands. How do we know they aren't carring some form of a disease that will wipe out all whitetails in the next ten years... we don't. Want a perfect exampel of this?? Fire ants..., not native, no natural predators or diseases here, so bye bye quail sorry we screwed up and let a non-native invasive species out on the loose, even if it was an accident. I don't even know why they issue permits to people who want these things anyway. They should just say "No!" and then say "Here's your sign...".
I tell you one thing... If I'm sitting in the stand in the morning and see a Leopard walking through the woods.... I might just smoke his booty and have a rug made. I can see the headlines now! Chickasaw Co. man kills largest bobcat ever!!
Rant over.
