The DNR is seeking to increase the Bobcat quota by 25%. I just reviewed the DNR's 2009 Bowhunter Survey and the Bobcat observations have DECREASED by 9%. MA ---------------- The amendments add Adair, Cass, Guthrie, Keokuk, Louisa, Madison, Mahaska, Marion, Warren and Washington counties to the open area for taking bobcats and increase the quota from 200 to 250. Any interested person may make written suggestions or comments on the proposed amendment on or before April 27, 2010. Written comments may be directed to the Wildlife Bureau's website at www.iowadnr.com or may be sent to the Wildlife Bureau Chief, Department of Natural Resources, Wallace State Office Building, Des Moines, Iowa 50319-0034; fax (515)281-6794.
