November 25, 2024 Nick Buggia, Michigan Wildlife Counsel and hunting publicity
We finally were able to schedule this recording and it was a very informative conversation. How the hunting community is viewed by nonhunters is a frequent thought topic of mine and Nick was able to bring some useful and encouraging statistics.

Uncle Grouse approved of me bringing microphones along to Bonasa Bonanza II and I was able to walk around the campfire colleting a few thoughts and answers to street interview questions. As you will tell it was a great event and a benefit to both the participants and volunteers.
