Episode #1109: Mike Brasher
from The Big Honker Podcast Hosted by Andy Shaver & Jeff Stanfield
Jeff Stanfield and Andy Shaver are joined by Ducks Unlimited Senior Waterfowl Scientist Mike Brasher for a deep dive into the recently released duck population numbers and what they mean for waterfowl hunters. They break down the latest survey results, looking at which duck species are declining, which are increasing, and which populations are holding steady. Mike explains the importance of the habitat that supports North America's duck populations and how conditions on the breeding grounds can impact migration and hunting seasons. The guys also examine the overall trends in duck populations, what the numbers tell us about the health of waterfowl populations, and what hunters can expect as they head into the upcoming waterfowl season. Mike shares his insight into what these numbers could mean for duck hunting in the coming season and the future of waterfowl hunting, giving hunters a better understanding of where duck populations are headed and the factors that will shape the years ahead.
