Getting rid of activist management would allow for proper wolf management in balance with other wildlife species and producers across the country.

Dan Gates shares news from Colorado about what a new ballot measure would do for ending the forced reintroduction of wolves to Colorado. The measure could balance voices on both sides but most importantly leave wolf management fully in the hands of the experts.

On this week's Save the Hunt update Dan Gates dives into Arizona House bill 2552. A recent citizen petition to Arizona's wildlife commission attempted to ban the use of all hunting dogs. This piece of legislature would ensure that the commission "Shall Not Prohibit the Use of Dogs." Support efforts like this to ensure the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation is allowed to continue to thrive and we keep our hunting heritage.
