Dan addresses the initiatives to ban the hunting of bobcats and mountain lions and the potential impact on out-of-state hunters. He emphasizes the importance of uniting as sportsmen and women and educating the general public about the benefits of hunting. We have an opportunity to protect what we love, and Dan shares what you can do to help.
