IF

I'm sure we'll never see it. But would the population explode if duck hunting was banned in North America for one fill season?

Would you support the ban if the study showed (example)1970 population would be regained?

The population estimates are higher now than in 1970.

I would be all for a 12 month stand down if it would help numbers.

There are more ducks now than there were then, at least by estimates. You just don't see as many down south. No till farming in the midwest is leaving more grain in the field, and there's more habitat for them. They are just spread out over a larger area. Very few animals experience population booms, and when they do it takes years. As others have said hunters don't kill much of the population anyway.

I would not want the 1970 duck populations,


Canceling a season wont fixed the ever changing migration patterns , habitat changes, imprinting and habitat degradation....



Now getting rid of no till farming.........




Don't let people drive mud and air boats over every square inch of marsh and lease


Don't let people take trucks atv and utv all the way to blinds....




Leave the ducks an place and a chance to rest
