Default RE: Politics of hunting in PA

Actually ulysses, despite your accusations, that information is disclosed in great detail and those results are posted on the Responsive Management site for all to see, as well as their sampling methodology, confidence levels, etc., etc., etc.

The most popular species that had been hunted or trapped in Pennsylvania in the past 2 years
were whitetail deer (the only species for which a majority had hunted—83%), wild turkey
(49%), squirrel (40%), cottontail rabbit (38%), pheasant (35%), ruffed grouse (29%), and
black bear (17%).
Must come as quite a blow to our vocal minority to see a statistically valid survey, taken less than a year ago, reveals only 10% of PA's hunters were "dissatisfied with your hunting experiences in Pennsylvania over the past 2 years" and the majority of them were merely "somewhat dissatisfied".

Must come as an even bigger shock that of those 10% who were dissatisfied, "work obligations" was the major reason given for their dissatisfaction.
