Listen, I enjoy watching wildlife as much as the next guy.

My point is that the PGC is having financial problems. the constantly whine about not having enough funds(see RSB's post)


Yet the PGC continues to fund projects that probably not really neede right now. Yes itsnice to see river otters and fishers, but those aren't game animals. We all know that pheasants and rabbit populations need help.

Wouldn't it make more sense to put money in those areas instead of reintrducing fishers?

I just don't see why the PGC would fund something like this when funds are so low.

Because of the economy, many business managers have to make cuts. Why pour money into a nongame animal if funds are low? Why not cut that project and worry about managing game species?

Many hunters are dropping out of the sport and one of the reasons is lack of game.


As mentioned, you don't need a hunting license to just go out and view wildlife.

Why worry about fishers? Fishers do go after porcupines with a vengance. Kinda makes me wonder why the PGC would be so interested in them and willing to spend their "limited" funds on reintroducing them.
