The Outdoor Patriot Show Updates on the Wolf Legislation

2011-04-11

 

AUSTIN, Texas — A rallying cry for our outdoor American traditions, the Outdoor Patriot Show is now featuring a special report on the on-going wolf legislation by Scott Rockholm, filmmaker and founder of Save Western Wildlife, who attended the recent court hearing held at the Federal District Court in Missoula, Mont. The Outdoor Patriot Show is available online at www.OutdoorPatriot.com, Facebook and Apple iTunes.

The unchecked wolf population has killed tens of thousands of elk and decimated the outdoor industry in many Western states. Canadian gray wolves were put on the Endangered Species List decades ago, and Fish & Wildlife recognized in 2009 that restoration goals had been achieved and they delisted the wolves. Thirteen animal rights groups immediately filed lawsuits and Judge Donald Molloy overturned the agency's decision in August 2010, putting wolves back on the Endangered Species list.

This episode also questions whether sportsmen our their own worst enemy. In this Outdoor Patriot Show, host John Meng reveals disturbing statistics that suggest the hunting industry could experience a 75 percent decline in the near future. And...it’s our own fault?!

The Outdoor Patriot Show provides information and lively commentary on important issues that threaten our American outdoor traditions. The podcast is available at www.OutdoorPatriot.com and Apple iTunes.
