Thanks for posting. It would be great if they will share the survey data with the public. ___________________ Just Remember, We ALL Told You So. | |||

The survey is complete BULLSHIT. Built in bias against hunting. Jeff | |||

I completed it. It may pay to let our side of things be heard. Be certain to add some comments about "sustainable use of wildlife in marginal areas of Africa" at the end. To me this is one of our strongest arguments, with the ballooning population growth of Africa, those lands will soon be covered up with people who see animals as a problem to eradicate or protein. Or both! On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died. If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...

I filled it out. But I suspect it's real use will be as a "poll" to show the (uninformed) public does not support trophy hunting and it should be phased out. | |||

I did not see it that way but you are entitled to your opinion. Most of my money I spent on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted | |||

But do we know what the results are? How do we know that the publishers are going to use the survey to tell us that hunting is not acceptable, regardless of the true results? I am always skeptical of these. Why should non hunters decide what hunters do? | |||

. Westlake University China !! If correct not surprised the Chinese are interested in the survey data - ivory, rhino horn and lion bones etc ! Chinese involvement is reason enough for me not to participate. . . "Up the ladders and down the snakes!" | |||
