Informing the Public on the Benefits of Hunting and Fishing along with the importance of the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation and Responsible Science Based Wildlife Management
This is what ignoring wildlife science looks like.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife recommended denial.
Sportsmen came out 500 strong against about 40 antis.
The biologists are telling us that harvest is not impacting populations.
The commissioners didn't know what they were voting on yet.
Despite all of this, the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commission voted to ban fur. The future of conservation, hunting, and trapping in Colorado is being decided right now.
In this episode of Through the Gates, we break down what happened at the recent Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commission meeting as debate heats up over the fur ban in Colorado and what it could mean for hunters, trappers, rural communities, and the future of wildlife management.
Host Dan Gates sits down with Doug Chaisson from the Fur Institute of Canada to discuss the real impacts of fur bans, the role of trappers in wildlife science, and why sportsmen and women from across Colorado showed up in force to defend the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation.
From the economic realities of the fur trade to the political landscape shaping wildlife policy, this conversation explores what’s happening behind the scenes and why sportsmen must stay engaged in the fight for science-based wildlife management.
More than 500 sportsmen, trappers, outfitters, and conservation advocates attended the commission meeting to make their voices heard as the state considers moving forward with rulemaking that could affect fur sales and trapping regulations.
Whether you hunt, trap, fish, or simply care about wildlife conservation, this episode explains why decisions being made today could shape the future of conservation for generations.
If you care about wildlife, conservation policy, hunting rights, and the future of trapping in North America — this conversation matters.
