The California Fish and Game Commission (CA FGC) votes unanimously to ban the importation and sale of American Bullfrogs. <br>  2. The decision follows a lengthy and thoughtful evaluation process, considering competing interests and potential dangers associated with the importation. <br>  3. The stakeholder process has been ongoing for 5+ years, with input from various parties and discussions within the Wildlife Resources Committee (WRC). <br>  4. American Bullfrogs, introduced to California, have caused damage to ecosystems and aquatic wildlife, motivating the commission to take action. <br>  5. The approved strategies will require collaboration with the Department for implementation, including regulatory proposals and potential legislative action.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading28916_2fb9e7-61, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading28916_2fb9e7-61[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading28916_2fb9e7-61\"]{padding-right:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);padding-left:var(--global-kb-spacing-xs, 1rem);font-size:var(--global-kb-font-size-md, 1.25rem);font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading28916_2fb9e7-61 mark, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading28916_2fb9e7-61[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading28916_2fb9e7-61\"] mark{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<p id=\"paragraph\" class=\"kt-adv-heading28916_2fb9e7-61 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading has-theme-palette-3-color has-text-color\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading28916_2fb9e7-61\">&#8220;No Californian needs to eat, jump, or keep as a pet, an American Bullfrog. Even if they did choose to partake in these activities, there is no reason why they would need a LIVE bullfrog imported in from a foreign country. A frozen frog or a live frog harvested from the feral bullfrog populations of California would suffice and would be far less ecologically harmful than a live imported frog, which would bring with it all its viruses, fungi, bacteria and ectoparasites, and would possibly escape or be set free in the wild to prey upon, compete with, and spread diseases to California\u2019s native amphibian populations. As such, I urge the FGC, the DFW and the politicians of California to do whatever is necessary, as rapidly as possible, to ban or otherwise bring to a complete cessation, the importation of live American Bullfrogs into the great state of California.&#8221; <br>\u2013 SAVE THE FROGS!

I am so impressed with your organization. When I get home, I am going to make an additional $1,000 contribution through your site. Why I said additional, I sent a check for that amount to your CA office. The reason for the hard check is my accountant is anal that all my contributions to charitable organizations should be hard checks for accounting purposes. I am overriding him this time around.\ud83e\udd23 Congratulations on your
