Ep. 590 – Pintails, Guns & Gear, Mediocre Habitat, and Avian Flu
Listen now
Description
Thanks to a newly approved pintail harvest strategy, waterfowl hunters in the Lower 48 may soon have the opportunity for a 3-pintail bag limit for the first time since 1997. In this June roundup, Chris Jennings and Dr. Mike Brasher provide updates on the new strategy and what it might mean for hunters, and when we should expect to learn more. New information on spring habitat conditions and the continued spread of avian flu in dairy cattle is also provided, and we get a virtual sneak peek at the New Guns & Gear segment in the forthcoming Ducks Unlimited magazine. www.ducks.org/DUPodcast
