Let's talk about hunting myths

[Alan]

We've all heard them from non-hunters. The one I hear most is hat hunters don't care about conservation. Meanwhile, our community funds more wildlife programs than anyone else. Our license fees and excise taxes literally pay for habitat restoration. What's the most frustrating myth you've had to correct?

 

[Logan]

A lot of people who don't hunt say we don't care about wildlife. I have to explain that our license fees, excise taxes and volunteer work pay for important projects that restore habitats.

The main thing people get wrong is thinking hunting stops when the animal is down. Protecting our resources means putting in effort and holding back. It means thinking before you shoot, most of the time.
