Yep. And judges that recognize the value of wildlife and the seriousness of game infractions. Hunt without a license and shoot a buck illegally in AL and see what it costs you. Then go any other well managed state in the midwest and do the same thing and let me know if the fines and penalties look any different. It's all about enforcement of the laws that are on the books. Alabama's current regs are probably fine. The problem is the almost complete lack of enforcement of the regs at all levels within the state from the AG&F, all the way down to the prosecuting attorneys and judges.
