Ep. 46: Act Now - Preserve your Right to Hunt!

Tuesday Apr 27, 2021

Grizzly bear hunting was banned in BC and now there are efforts in place to ban the wolf hunt. Will it stop there, or is all hunting under attack? Predator hunting, trophy hunting, and “the social licence to operate” is what this episode is all about.
