Make the case for federalizing game species

[WyoCoalMiner]

Again, people struggle with scale. Does “management” at a national scale make sense for wildlife that roam over square miles? To me, no. For wildlife that move between multiple countries and continents twice each year? Yes. But even at that, the fed involvement is pretty limited to population estimates (due to the international scale of the population), and tracking habitat and harvest.

But still…the states get to determine NR opportunity for waterfowl too. For example: You can only buy one 2 week license in North Dakota as a NR. I believe you must draw a license to hunt waterfowl at all as a NR in South Dakota. The Feds don’t dictate at all how each state chooses to allocate the opportunities within their borders.

Dont want Fed management of wildlife, just pointing out that @Treeshark 's perspective of the antithetical flipflop @Straight Arrow pointed to is not without merit.
