RE: Does only in MN?
bearbecker, I concur whole heartedly. Heck, I'd give up several years of buck hunting to help the bucks reach maturity. Problem is all the "trophy hunters" would be crying the blues. There is also the problem of economics. Alot of the area where I live gets mosts of its live blood from the fishing and hunting dollars that are injected into the local economy.
As for the hunter's for humanity stuff. If they could find away for the processing to be subsidized there would be much more given to the cause. But the majority of the people I know can't afford to pay $75-100 for processing just to give it away.
