PHOENIX - In an effort to introduce more people to hunting and fishing in our state, the Arizona Game and Fish Department is publishing three of its regulation booklets in Spanish.
"Arizona has a large population of Hispanics. Our department has long recognized the importance of reaching this segment of hunters and anglers. Translating our regulations into Spanish is just another step in that direction," says Francisco Abarca, the international and borderland projects manager for the department.
Available this week will be the 2005-2006 hunt regulations translated into Spanish. They are currently being shipped to 172 sporting goods stores, gun shops and Arizona Game and Fish Department license dealers across the state.
The hunt regulation booklet is an informative guide for Spanish-speaking hunters or those interested in hunting for the first time. It contains information on how to apply for big game hunts and hunting licenses in Arizona, where and what to hunt, and costs associated with hunting in Arizona. The hunt regulations also contain a full-page map of the state outlining the different game management units.
"Many Hispanics truly enjoy outdoor recreational activities and many take the whole family with them," says Abarca. "Sport fishing and hunting is another way of enjoying the outdoors, and the department wants everyone to have the information needed to understand and participate in these kinds of recreational activities."
The 2005-2006 Spanish hunt regulations will also be available at all Arizona Game and Fish Department offices around the state and online at azgfd.gov.
