Controversial Goose Management – Special Guest - Kaitlyn Barnes | The Green Way Outdoors Podcast

After Kyle Green spoke out against goose gas chambers in a viral video, he got the attention of the Michimmgan DNR. So we invited Waterfowl Biologist Kaitlyn Barnes to come on the podcast and give the Department of Natural Resources' side of the story.

In this episode of The Green Way Outdoors Podcast, we sit down with Kaitlyn Barnes, the Waterfowl Biologist for the Michigan DNR, for a deep dive into the most pressing waterfowl management issues affecting Michigan hunters and beyond.

We engage in a strong but friendly debate over Canada goose population control, including the controversial use of gas chambers and nest destruction. Is this the right way to manage nuisance goose numbers, or is there a better solution?

Other hot topics include:

✅ 2025 duck population projections – What can hunters expect next season?

✅ Deer culling – Should hunters be involved?

✅ Wood duck boxes – How hunters can help conservation efforts, but what they need to know before setting one up!

Whether you're a Michigan waterfowl hunter, a Midwest conservationist, or just love the outdoors, this episode is packed with insight, debate, and must-know info for the 2025 hunting season!
