It is our experience at FNA that many hunters do not understand that if you lose your hunting rights in a state that has joined the Interstate Wildlife Violator Compact you lose your hunting rights in any state that has signed the Interstate Compact. For example, if you lose your hunting rights in one state that is a part of the Interstate Compact you lose your hunting rights in ALL states that are a part of the Interstate Compact. The list of states in the Interstate Compact continue to grow and currently includes:
- Alaska
- Arizona
- California
- Colorado
- Florida
- Georgia
- Idaho
- Illinois
- Indiana
