Omaha law re: pellet gun shooting in town

(1/2) > >>

depserv:
Do I understand Omaha law correctly to say that it is legal to shoot a pellet gun in town as long as the pellet does not leave your property?  Would I be correct in assuming that this applies also to Elkhorn? 

If it is, would shooting a rabbit out of one's garden require a hunting license (even if you don't plan on eating the rabbit)?

If a neighbor gave a person permission to shoot a rabbit even if it was in his yard, would that make it legal to shoot a pellet that went into that neighbor's yard?  (This is probably moot, since a neighbor who gave permission would not be likely to make a complaint.  But it is good to be sure.)

Thanks

Thank you for that.  I didn't realize that Omaha actually did allow that.

Can anyone answer the second part of his questions? (I have a similar issue with a rabbit and a couple of squirrels.)  I was under the impression (from way back when) that you had to have a fur bearers permit to hunt them, and it had to be in the fur bearer season.

RLMoeller:
Rabbits and squirrels are considered small game so they require a hunting permit and a habitat stamp.  The furbearers permit is for beaver, raccoon, muskrat, etc. You would also need to adhere to the published small game seasons.
