HISTORICAL AND REVISION NOTES
The criminal provisions of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act,
sections 703-711 of title 16, U.S.C., 1940 ed., Conservation, and
the Migratory Bird Conservation Act, sections 715-715r of title 16,
U.S.C., 1940 ed., Conservation, were considered for inclusion in
this chapter. Since these provisions, except parts of sections
704-707 of said title 16, are so inextricably interwoven with the
Migratory Bird Acts, it was found advisable to exclude them.
