How many Americans rely on hunting?
Over 300 million hunters reside in the United States. This means that there are almost twice as many hunters in America than people who live in New York City.
Hunting has been a popular American pastime for centuries. Today, however, hunting for sport is less popular than ever. According to the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service(FWS) says that only 2 per cent of the population hunts on a regular basis. Even lower is the number of young adults who hunt regularly.
While hunting may seem like something that is long gone, it is still popular among the older generation. According to a recent survey, 68 percent of boomers intend to hunt again after they retire. Hunting is an opportunity to reconnect with nature and experience the outdoors.
Younger generations may not consider hunting a priority. According to the National Shooting Sports Foundation only 18% of millennials consider themselves avid hunters.
FWS works hard to ensure that America's wild places are accessible to all.
In 2014, the agency started the "Wild Lands” initiative to raise awareness about the importance of public lands. It is intended to raise awareness and encourage people visiting these areas to preserve them.
Conservation efforts are encouraged through Wild Lands. FWS and National Rifle Association formed a partnership to create Project Gunter, a youth-oriented shooting sports program. This program teaches children safety with firearms and helps develop skills like marksmanship, safety, and shooting.
Project Gunter is expanding to include minorities and women. Project Gunter is now expanding to include women and minorities.
Hunting is a great hobby.
Hunting is a game of chess. You have to think ahead, plan out every move, and anticipate where the game will go next.
Hunting is all about finding food. You must be able to identify the type of prey you are looking for, track it, and stop tracking. You won't catch anything if you don't know this information.
When hunting, the most important thing is to never lose your eyes. You won't miss any chances. When you do see something, make sure you get close enough so that you can identify it. Then take note of everything you saw and record it. This will allow you to remember what you saw later, if you want to hunt again.
It's about more than shooting at targets. It's about being in tune to yourself, your environment, and the animals surrounding you.
