This explanation was given by Robert D. Nielson, Bureau of Land Management director for Utah, because of apparent confusion on the part of some peo pie. Mr. Nielson said that preda tors which cause livestock mortality can be removed by trapping, denning or shooting from the ground. Although foxes, bob cats and coyotes may be shot or trapped without a permit, Mr. Nielson pointed out that for the bears and cougars there are specific hunting seasons and state hunting license requirements. Also, aerial gunning requires a special permit from the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources. Bureau employees are working closely with stockmen to im plement the executive order, he said. Stockmen experiencing any losses by predators on lands administered by BLM should no- tify bureau district managers immediately of any such losses Upon verification of significant losses, the bureau will request that the Division of Wildlife Frames of 4x4 inch western wood set off tack boards, shelves, windows, lending organized, custom look to teenagers' room.
