California Falconry License Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

True or False: Temporary possession of a banded/transmitter caught raptor will count towards your yearly quota.

True

False

The statement is false because temporary possession of a banded or transmitter-equipped raptor does not count towards the annual quota for capturing raptors. Quotas are established to monitor and manage the population of falcons and other raptors, ensuring sustainability and responsible practices within falconry. Temporary possession usually applies to raptors that are intended to be released back into the wild after a brief period, such as for medical treatment or rehabilitation. Since these birds are not retained as part of your hunting or collection, they do not impact your annual capture limit.

This means that while the bird is in your care, it is expected to eventually return to the wild, thus maintaining the integrity of the management practices put in place for raptor populations. As a falconer, your responsibility is to follow these regulations closely to promote ethical hunting and conservation efforts.
