Activists Want To Outlaw Hunting
from The Bill & Alison Mencarow Show · host Bill & Alison Mencarow
Interview with Luke Hilgemann, Executive Director of The International Order of T. Roosevelt, about proposed regulations that threaten hunting and fishing on federal lands. From their website: "President Theodore Roosevelt pioneered the North American Model of Conservation – the idea that conservation efforts are crucial to our hunting way of life and that hunters are vital for successful conservation. Now the Right to Hunt in America is under attack. "Unlike President Roosevelt, misguided politicians and radical activists want to undermine our outdoor lifestyle. It’s not hyperbolic to describe their efforts as focused on one goal: the complete eradication of hunting in America. As a result, President Theodore Roosevelt’s vision for conservation is in danger. "Hunting is conservation. Seventy-five cents out of every dollar spent on conservation comes from hunters. But access and support for hunting is fading. Activists and politicians have chipped away at the foundation of our sport through restrictions and bans, threatening conservation funding."
