I'd like Canada's season lengths and daily limits. I doubt it would affect the population much, if any. I agree, except for no species specific limit on canvasbacks. Not sure of other provinces but I know you can shoot 6 in ontario. I could see that potentially hurting down here in the states where...

You name it. The options are limitless.

And except for the fact that they get raped constantly and every egg will be have different DNA because hens are cheating sluts. Ever seen a lone hen in the spring? Probably not very many, and probably only because a bachelor hadn't found her yet since her mate died. They would be okay. As for liber...

Bands suck. I like my birds pure and untainted by human hands.

My problem with "feel good" projects are that they fuel complacency. It makes most participants feel like they are doing enough. I have been at few of the "death box" building activities and never once was the fact stated that the project is a good start but much more needs to b...

Fowler, How many ducks would 100,000 structures add to the fall flight? If 80,000 are used. 10 eggs each, 800,000 ducklings, 50% survival rate gives you 400,000 more ducks. That's .08% added to the population with impossible succes rates.... yeah, thats a difference maker. Just saying. Well as usua...

Hen houses are a great project for 10 year old boyscouts. Not a legitimate replacement for breeding habitat. We would need millions of them to make any significant impact, but I guarantee we don't have the people who have the desire to do the upkeep on them.

And with a teal season, it's not going to be every single license holder out there hunting. Look at how many "hardcore" tough guys complain about the September opener because of flippen mosquitos. Early on in the teal discussions, Cordts estimated abkut 30,000 guys would have participated....

Hunter opinion, for or against, any regulation...should never be a factor. All you have to do is spend about 5 minutes reading what is posted on the "Minnesota Waterfowlers" Facebook page to see how truly misguided and ignorant the vast majority of those who hunt ducks from this State are...
