Under study for years. Will update soon with Secretary Zinke. Thank you! \r\n\r\n\u2014 Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 18, 2017 \r\n \r\n Where do you stand on this issue? Do you agree with the President’s abrupt change?\u00a0 \r\n Cam Hanes has already spoken out on the issue, and posted a long response on his Instagram account: \r\n \r\n \r\n \u00a0 \r\n Is this for real @realdonaldtrump? I\u2019ve never hunted elephant or have ever wanted to, but I do know that every successful wildlife conservation model includes hunting of select animals. Just look right here in North America, the greatest wildlife conservation success story in the world. It is because of hunters that our wildlife thrives. We don\u2019t kill everything as the term \u201chorror show\u201d inaccurately might indicate. Biologists and wildlife professionals study habitat, the carrying capacity of the land, how many animal currently call it home, the health of the herd, etc. and determine bag limits. To ensure the health of any herd, this needs to happen with all animals, including elephants. I am shocked that you or those on your staff (@repryanzinke) aren\u2019t fully aware of this? If some small town bowhunter from Oregon knows that hunting animals gives them value whereas not hunting animals is the very worst thing that can happen for their future, that\u2019s not a good sign. North America isn\u2019t Africa, I understand that. So, let\u2019s talk about the history of hunting in Kenya where in reality they loved their animals to death. Kenya\u2019s much-praised ban on hunting, had an impact opposite to its intent: wild animals disappeared at an accelerating rate. \u201cCharismatic megafauna\u201d; elephants, lions, rhinos, population numbers have plummeted. When Kenya\u2019s hunting ban was passed in 1977 in response to the \u201cIvory Wars\u201d that were ravaging the nation\u2019s elephants, it was hailed as a new and progressive paradigm for wildlife management. With the hunting pressure off, animal lovers opined, the game prosper. Instead Kenya\u2019s wildlife has declined by more than 70 percent over the past 20 years. What happened? While the ban played well in the developed world, it was catastrophic for the people who lived in the rural Kenya, where wildlife actually exists. As animal rights groups applauded Kenya\u2019s no-kill policy and urged its adoption across Africa, the killing continued unabated. Hunting gave the animals of Kenya value so those that live there cared about protecting them, as in investment. But with no hunting, elephants are a negative as they damage crops, ruin water sources, (cont.) 👇 \r\n A post shared by Cameron Hanes (@cameronrhanes) on Nov 20, 2017 at 9:45am PST \r\n \r\n \r\n ","post_title":"Trump Calls Big Game Hunting a \"Horror Show\"; Plans to Keep Trophy Ban in Place","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"president-trump-abrupt-change-heart-calls-elephant-hunting-horror-show","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2018-01-22 15:09:03","post_modified_gmt":"2018-01-22 20:09:03","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/www.outdoorhub.com\/?post_type=news&p=455671","menu_order":0,"post_type":"news","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":454970,"post_author":"287","post_date":"2017-11-20 13:22:09","post_date_gmt":"2017-11-20 18:22:09","post_content":" While past generations of cold-weather sports enthusiasts braved the elements clad in attire ill-suited to withstand extreme conditions, winter wear has advanced dramatically in recent years \u2014 allowing us to dress for success no matter what Mother Nature throws at us. \r\n The value of dressing for the conditions can\u2019t be overstated. Maintaining your comfort zone is critical to safe and enjoyable outings, whether you\u2019re ice fishing, late-season deer and pheasant hunting, snowshoeing or cross-country skiing. \r\n On the flip side, once you get soaked, start shivering, or can\u2019t feel your fingers and feet, it\u2019s pretty much game over. Fun and efficiency go out the window, and you\u2019ll quickly head for the truck or the cabin. If shelter isn\u2019t an option, you could suffer adverse health conditions including hypothermia, frostbite or worse. \r\n Check out the infographic below to learn the secrets to successful layering. And get out there and enjoy the late fall and winter! \r\n \r\n Upland Hunting \r\n \r\n\t Base layer: Medium-weight, flexible base layer to allow for plenty of walking and (hopefully) shooting. \r\n\t Middle layer: Light- to medium fleece. \r\n\t Outer layer: Medium-weight jacket with durable canvas shell, elastic shell holders and bloodproof game bag. Example: Cabela\u2019s 8-in-1 Upland Coat . \r\n\t Socks: Medium-weight wool or synthetic blend with friction-reducing toe seams. \r\n\t Boots : Lightly insulated, durable upland styles such as Cabela\u2019s Kangaroo Featherlight Boots . \r\n\t Cap: Quilted or lightly insulated field cap with baseball-style visor to block sun when shooting; fleece earflaps are a godsend on cold and breezy days. \r\n\t Gloves: lightly insulated gloves durable enough to ward off briars. \r\n \r\n Stand Hunting Whitetails \r\n \r\n \r\n\t Base layer: Heavyweight base layer like Cabela\u2019s Insulated Stand Hunter Base-Layer Top and Bottoms , featuring merino wool, PrimaLoft Silver insulation and odor-fighting treatment. \r\n\t Middle layer: Heavy yet flexible fleece pullover and bottoms. \r\n\t Outer layer: 100- to...
