Go look up the history of the wild turkey and how hunters saved it from extinction. Or how about the elk. Deer populations are booming....bears too.

Everything hunters are allowed to hunt ends up having a DRAMATIC turn around in species population. It is almost like the money they spend on licenses goes towards wildlife conservation for that species or something.?.?...weird.


Allowing hunters to take game increasing the species well-being overall.

Environmental alarmists.

What if I told you that over 99% of the species ever known to have existed are extinct?

You are correct but we have hit the tipping points now on a lot of species. Most waterfowl and large fauna in North America are in decline as a whole, including whitetail most recent studies have found.

Even the WWF numbers say North America is now stable. Its the rest of the world that is causing this issue; take it up with them and stop saying we have to change here

I believe it. In the 80’s, the WWF had a Gorilla, a weasel, a snake, a bird, a komada dragon, and a bulldog. Now, the WWE just has a Viper.

Everything from big game animals and birds to our favorite fish have had their populations decline nearly 70% in the past 50 years, according to the WWF report.


I hope this is as accurate as the climate predictions......

Good thing hunters exist because many species would be extinct. I bet that 70% reduction rate correlates with the habitat reduction rate. Hunters, and the tags they buy, conserve land which in turn gives animals a chance to survive.
