Harvesting of wild animals has become part of us ever since we came into existence. It is for this reason that they engage in the activity to supplement the food crops they grow in their farms. The reasons for harvesting vary depending on the needs of the hunter. Sometimes the hunter wants to convert it into a meal or to use some parts of their body such as the hides to make money. One way to do that is through gator hunting in Louisiana.

It is quite evident that the skin from the alligator has been used to make leather products. The skin or hide makes one of the best leather products which stand out from among the rest. A person who has used clothing from the leather can attest to the fact that it is nothing but quality stuff.

Alligator Harvesting has specific guidelines which are designed to foster an understanding between the hunter and the relevant government authority within the region. The hunter has a responsibility to produce the relevant documents that indicate that they own a wetland area of land which is able to cater for the growth of the animal. The documents must be verified in order to prove their authenticity.

Residents have an added advantage due to the fact that they can obtain the licenses cheaply. Unlike the nonresidents who may involve the help of the licensed hunter. This kind of procedure is most applicable when engaging in the activity as a form of sport. They cannot engage in it without the supervision of the licensed hunter.

This activity would not be complete if not for introduction of certain equipment. They are namely; hook and line, firearms and bows and arrows. Nevertheless, the issue of firearms must be revised because shot guns are examples of firearms but are not allowed. The relevant department has banned this due to their destructive nature.

The process involving the manufacture of the hide is quite cumbersome. This is why, the storage of the hide is to be taken into account. It is advisable to store them in a cool and dry environment so that they do not get spoiled by contaminants such as the oil and gasoline. The hide is so delicate that it can lose their value if stored improperly.

The government authority has organized a plan through which they can organize for the activity so that those who want to participate in it can take full advantage of the calendar that has been provided. It clearly states that every first Wednesday of September of each year throughout the month is most appropriate. They can get CITES tags which act as licenses for the activity. If a person defies this order, they may face prosecution.

All in all, it is important to acknowledge the fact that the area recognizes the activity because of the benefits they accrue. Some of the hunters use part of the proceeds they get from selling their hides in supporting themselves. On top of that, the both residents and nonresidents need to find out how much they require before they can obtain their licenses from the wildlife and fisheries department of Louisiana.
