[QUOTE="phillse, post: 390518, member: 5684"] A side note, on funding for DNR. Did you know that DNR recieves no Federal Tax money. Funding for DNR saleries and all thier wildlife projects come from the excise tax on firearms, ammo, fishing supplies set forth by the Pittman-Robertson Act, from duck stamps, hunting license and if you get technical fines. That means that all of the work being done to protect wildlife and to restore endagered species is being done by hunters & fishermen and not bleeding heart environmentalist. It also means that if you are not a hunter, fisherman, or gun enthusiast you don't provied any funding for DNR. This is a point I try to really bring out in class so that people understand that hunters and fishermen are really wildlife's best friend. By the way at my school I teach 7 -12 but all the 7th and 8th graders (boys and girls take my class). I require all my students to take the hunter safety course as part of their 7th grade Introductory Ag class. Trying to do my part to educate the masses so that hunting and fishing continue to exist for posterity [/QUOTE]
