hunting conservation funding

2007-08-17 Thread Swain, Pat (FWE)
This started as an attempt to make a brief point that there are ways of raising funds for conservation work that have been proposed and don't appear to be being followed up on. It sort of grew to include some explanations of why some public lands are required to be open for hunting and fishing.

Wendee (The only reason I changed the subject line is because of my filing system; feel free to change it back): Wl, I think one has to be careful about cases. Personally, I find it repugnant to hunt for any reason other than food, and I would never suggest hunting as a means of fund
