backup from who? We have 254 counties in Texas, you want to quess how many game wardens we have? You don't need a game warden. Our county, (in Florida) allows licensed private individuals to keep the gator carcass in return for removing a nuisance gator.
This is lucrative, as large gators are worth hundreds of dollars in meat and skin. Once government gets its mits out of the equation and opens up the opportunity to make money, the market will provide adequate services.
And this is even cheaper than hiring a game warden to do a half @$$ed job. It doesn't cost the taxpayer anything.

Does this mean that you would allow these businesses to dispatch these animals the safest and most expedient way possible, or would you impose regulations on those businesses on how they go about dispatching these animals?

See the problem is, those of us who have lived here all our life just don't see it as a problem. One warden, one gator, one shot. I suggest you use all those private guys for ballot counting.
