Created in 1937. it is funded by manufacturers' excise taxes on sporting arms and a m m u n itio n , a r c h e r y equipment, and handguns Receipts go into a special fundintheU .S Treasury ami are apportioned among state wildlife agencies on a cast* sharing basis for research, land acquisition, habitat development and outdoor education. State ap portionments are based on lam! area ami hunting license sales In the past 40 years, the P R program has financed more than $1 billion in wildlife restoration activity Those who would undermine the program claim that most of the money is spent on animals that are hunted, such as deer and ducks, to the detriment of species that are not. such as evening grosheuks and house finches They are half right, which makes them half wrong and ignorant of some important facts. Most of the money is invested i|* program s designed and labeled to benefit game anim als Consequently, most deerand duck populations are in pretty good shape But these programs do not decimate nongatne as the crusaders claim Evening griMbeak and house finch populations are increasing ra p id ly The reason is relatively simple Certain groups of wildlife species (game and nongame > prefer certain types of habitat. For example, when a land manager uses prescribed annual burning in a maturing southern pine forest to stimulate the growth of low vegetation that supplies food and cover for bobwhite quail, he a uto m a tica lly helps cotton rats, co tto n ta il rabbits, bobcats (which eat the rats and rabbits) and at least 20 species of songbirds Il happens that way because rats, rabbits and songbircfe need the same type of food and cover as do the quail, and therefore, the bobcat's dinner table is set, too There are, .of course, many other closely knit associations of SERVICE WE GIVE! game and nongame in other types of habitat. That these associations exist is an indisputable scientific fact So much so that experienced wildlife managers can name the anim als — game and nongame — expected to 1* present in any one area simply by looking at the habitat type Consequently, if the P R program helps certain game on certain areas of land and water, it is ecologically impossible to avoid helping ce rta in nongame. But that's only part of the story Any time an acre of land is improved for one group of species, its value may be changed for another grixip Grey squirrels anil Acadian flyca tche rs don't like annually burned pine forests, fox squirrels and pine warblers do. And so on Therefore, when P R funds are used to create a certain type of habitat, the results are not increases in game and decreases in nongame. The results are that the land becomes more attractive to those wildlife species that prefer that type of habitat, and becomes or remains less attractive to animals with different needs ibis is w hy wildlife managers try to create diverse habitat types — so there w ill be a greater variety of animal species for people to enjoy That is why the P R money is used to burn in one place, impound water in another, cut timber in another, plow and cultivate in another, and provide complete protection to vegetation in another And the record shows it works A visit to a water area developed for ducks or to an upland managed basically for deer, turkeys or squirrels quickly reveals that many nongame anim als are Federal judge reduces Pacific salmon season US.

The P-R program helped finance the return and maintenance of these species and many others, both bame and nongame And it does not cost federal taxpayers one penny because all costs for administering the program are borne entirely by the manufacturers' excise taxes paid by those who enjoy recreational hunting I would be wrong to imply that the program is perfect. Certainly, it can be improved and is being improved But to scuttle it in ignorance of its great value to America's wildlife heritage, as some would do, would be a social crim e of m onumental proportions ------- — and---------- lo c a l R » p r » « » n t a t ly » INSURANCE AGENCY 668-4421 benefited. In fa ct, the number of nongame species benefited invariable exceeds the number of game species But to appreciate the present, one must understand the past. About 1900, many authorities did not have much hope that any of the larger forms of wildlife mould survive beyond the 1920's This pessimistic view failed to foresee the scientific w ild lif e m anagem ent programs that developed in the early 1930's and which, with the help of P R money, have expanded trou th subsequent decades.
