0029 - How an 1868 Treaty Could Turn the North American Model on its Head

Dec 11, 2018

Wildlife conservation requires a regulated system for managing the game and the hunter. That has been the model for a hundred years. Known as the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation, it has successfully staved off extinction of most game species in the US. Everyone must follow state game laws now, right? Not so fast. The guys discuss a pending US Supreme Court case interpreting an 1868 Tribal Treaty that could exempt some citizens from state game regulations on many federal lands across the West - including several National Parks. Listen to learn about the background of the case, and how it could impact you and wildlife populations in the West.
