Originally posted by Landrover View PostEvery year, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service reviews hunting and fishing programs on National Wildlife Refuges to determine whether it should add new opportunities and modify existing opportunities. This year, the Service has proposed to open or expand hunting on nine Refuges.

And those same areas would never be opened if a democrat had won the last potus election. That's just a fact of life now.
In my area, our federal refuge was a fiefdom of the manager. And the 4 years we had an antihunter running it, it was basically off limits to hunters. It rained? The roads closed. It's hot? Close it because someone might drop a cigarette butt and cause a fire. During hunting season, all 2 days of it, the gates opened at 7am, after daylight, closed at 5pm. If you got caught behind them, you got a trespassing ticket the next morning. Hunting ducks? Let him check your vehicle and find a rifle cartridge. Your poaching deer. It was one harassment after another, and it took years to get him transferred to someplace else. So there are instances when federal oversite is an infringement, and the attitude of the Feds filters down from the top. Now, we are seeing reversals of obama policy shutting down millions of acres of federal lands for hunting. I hope it continues for the next 4 years.
