Stocks Are As Hunters

Conservation Program Needed to Restore “State Natural Sports Resources

By MARC G.

Hoosier nimrods tramping the fields and bagging a lone rabbit or| maybe a brace of ‘birds are getting a first-hand demonstration of the problem that conservation leaders have been facing over a period of

years.

Only the blindest sportsman has failed to realize that you can't

squeeze wildlife and game into an food and cover to face an increasing numbér of hunters and come out with the quality of hunting that Granddad tells about. It's a \ problem that other states are facing. not Indiana alone. Maybe a realization that convergation will not substitute for some real conservation will come out of present conditions—at least that fis the silver lining which conservation leaders see in the present situation.

What Comes Next?

Writing under the above title in a recent issue of Outdoor America, publication of the Izaak Walton League, Dr. Ira N. Gabrielson, president of Wildlife Management Institute and former director of the U. 8. Fish and Wildlife Service, reviews the present-day hunting situation, He points out that the combination of decreased stocks of pheasants and waterfowl wifh a huge increase

in the number of hunters has “started the ‘anvil corus’ oing again, blaming everything and

everybody for this condition.” “Every other suggestion will be made,” he asserts, “before the aver-

Predators, the regulations, the weather during the hunting season and every other conceivable factor will be blamed before the average gunner will face the facts.

Outlook for the Future

Pointing out that those interested in maintaining outdoor sport face a real problem, Dr. Gabrielson points out that it will be a real job to produce the increased stocks of birds and mammals demanded by the greater number of hunters and that it is neither spectacular nor a quick producer. His solution is the provision of more and better habitat -food and cover conditions—for
