  • Appendix I. 2015 Stocking Schedule
    Welcome to the Fisheries of New Mexico! New Mexico offers abundant angling opportunities for the public to enjoy. We have isolated mountain lakes, montane meadow streams, the rugged Rio Grande Gorge, large reservoirs with monster striped bass or lake trout, and the list goes on and on. New Mexico also supports a unique and diverse native fish fauna. Despite this diversity and the Department’s long contributions to wildlife conservation efforts, the Department has never developed a comprehensive plan which describes overarching vision for contemporary and future management for all fisheries in the state. Considering the modern challenges and conflicts within natural resource management, the Department recognized a clear need to better communicate with anglers, resource users, and the general public how we plan to manage a particular lake, stream, or river. I believe this Statewide Fisheries Management Plan does just that. While this is the first ever plan of such comprehensive scope in New Mexico, it really is a summary of the conventional knowledge, vision, and decades of work by the Department and its partners who work to conserve our aquatic resources. Our collective knowledge and vision is now readily available to all interested individuals. By being available to the general public, this document will help to explain the “why” behind our activities. I hope you find it useful to join the Department in conserving New Mexico’s wildlife for future generations. -Alexandra Sandoval, Director NMDGF Fisheries Management Plan 2015 Page 1 Table of Contents Introduction and Purpose of Plan ................................................................................................... 6 Scope and Organization of Plan ...................................................................................................... 7 Overview of NMDGF Fisheries Program ........................................................................................

  • Southwest Places to Visit Or
    Places to Visit or Collect in the Southwestern United States Places to Visit or Collect in the Southwestern United States By Thomas Farley Revision 003, October 1, 2019. (Version 001 was incorrectly labeled October 1, 2019) https://www.patreon.com/writingrockhound (more good stuff!) [email protected] (comments, corrections, and additions wanted!) These are places I visited or were recommended to me while traveling in the Southwest for my book. I mostly visited rock related places and ground open to collecting. Weather wise, October may be the best time to travel the Southwest, followed by May. It is impractical to visit every place you want to go because day after day you will find certain stores, mines, and museums closed. Traveling Monday through Thursday is especially tough, my advice is to prospect or collect on those days and then try to visit businesses and museums closer to the weekend. You will have to return to the Southwest to visit places closed on your first travel. I envy you. German motorcyclist balancing on the Four Corners Monument 1 By Thomas Farley: https://www.patreon.com/writingrockhound Arizona (and one exception in Utah) James Mitchell’s Gem Trails of Arizona is dated but essential. Anyone traveling extensively off-pavement in Arizona should get an Arizona State Trust Land Permit. $15.00 for an individual. Rockhounding on Arizona State Trust Land is prohibited but stopping at any point on these lands constitutes a “use” and that use demands a permit. Determining where these properties exists while driving is impractical, most are managed grazing land outside of small towns or settlements.

  • Approved Meeting Minutes Volume 53 Number 8 New Mexico Herpetological Society (NMHS) August 6, 2015 We Came Together at the Amer
    Approved Meeting Minutes Volume 53 Number 8 New Mexico Herpetological Society (NMHS) August 6, 2015 We came together at the American International Rattlesnake Museum in Old Town Albuquerque. Scott presided over our meeting which began at 718 PM and was attended by 20 guests, including a child, a toddler and a teen herper. Scott said that this evening’s presentation will come first, followed by a short break, followed by the business meeting and a recap of what's happened since our last NMHS meeting on May 7. PROGRAM Scott introduced our presenter of the evening, his son Logan Bulgrin. Logan titled his project "Does Educational Outreach Affect A 6th Grader's Perspective on Arachnids?" He did this for his 6th grade class at Corrales International Baccalaureate School. Logan’s Hypothesis was: I believe that after conducting an educational outreach (PowerPoint presentation and arachnid display) the subjects view on arachnids will increase positively. His pre-survey asked 27 students in his class whether they liked or disliked arachnids. With his dad’s help, Logan brought live arachnids including a Rose-haired Tarantula, into the classroom and showed slides of arachnids to his classmates. His post-survey asked those same students whether they now liked arachnids more or disliked them less. And his Conclusion was: After analyzing results of my study, my hypothesis was correct. More students increased their liking for arachnids after the educational outreach. Logan then showed slides of 8-legged arachnids to the delight of us in his audience. Tarantulas, scorpions with their black light fluorescing bacteria, sun spider, tick, arisamulid, schizomida, vinegaroon, daddy long legs, black widows and Happy Face spider.
