Today I wanted to talk about one of the most important aspects of the outdoors, conservation. Without the funds to conserve our wildlife, fish, public lands, and more there would be nothing there for us to pursue.

Many people are also not aware of where the money for conservation comes from. They believe the federal or state governments allot fish and wildlife agencies money and they go on their way. This couldn't be farther from the truth. It is the hunters, anglers, and recreational shooters that are responsible for the bulk of these funds.

This is why participation numbers directly impact the amount of funds available for fish and wildlife conservation. Join me as I explain just how the our North American Model of Conservation works in the U.S. and how participation affect the bottom line.
