Thanks very much for posting that. We ought to all send this link to our non-hunting friends. This is a story that everyone needs to hear. The media stereotype of hunters is of people carelessly blasting at whatever moves and destroying habitat. I know this is way off base, but the non-hunters don't know and are at the mercy of the media caricatures of hunters.

Simon said hunters and others helped save the bird in large part by buying Duck Stamps, at $15 each. These stamps are not for postage

Anyone else find the beginning of thisparagraph a little humorous?

Kind of off topic, but I don't understand anti-hunters in the least bit, anyway.

The only anti-hunters who have any credibility with me are those who never eat meat - I may disagree and think they have a screw loose, but at least they are consistent.

The people I don't understand are those that will go to lunch with me and while they scarf down a Big Mac claim that hunting animals is wrong, as if they don't understand the concept of where their burger came from. I mean, my wife has no desire to kill any animals and so she doesn't hunt personally, but she is up front about understanding that if you eat meat, it comes from somewhere - she would just prefer someone else do the killing for her.

People are weird everywhere, I guess.
