FWC reopens Holey Land and Rotenberger wildlife management areas November 21, 2008 The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission has reopened Holey Land and Rotenberger wildlife management areas to public access. Beginning Saturday, Nov. 22, legal hunting and recreational use are once again permitted. The areas were closed by executive order in August, after high water levels jeopardized wildlife, particularly deer. The water levels have since receded. Everglades and Francis S. Taylor Wildlife Management Area is open only for waterfowl hunting, frogging and fishing in canals. People participating in these activities must remain at least 100 yards from any tree island or levee. All other vehicles, airboats and public access are prohibited, except in Conservation Area 2 from the L-35B levee north to the east-west airboat trails. |
Our mission: Managing fish and wildlife resources for their long-term well-being and the benefit of people.
