Idaho Hunters Satisfied With Controlled Hunts, But Would Consider Options
by TBC Press on 01/06/16
Idaho Fish and Game recently conducted a survey to take the pulse of hunters about controlled-hunt drawings, and the majority of them are satisfied with the current system. The approval percentage is also higher than it was a decade ago. Based on a random, mail-based survey, which is the gold standardof scientific surveys, 58 percent of hunters agreed with the statement I am satisfied with the current controlled-hunt drawing system. Another 33 percent said they were dissatisfied, and 9 percent were neutral.
Satisfaction with the controlled-hunt system is 16 points higher than a similar survey in 2005, and the controlled-hunt system has not significantly changed since then. There are no pending proposals to change the controlled-hunt system, but Fish and Game commissioners want to know if opinions have changed since 2005 when a similar survey was done. READ MORE
