Intrinsic Value Of Hunting





Also on the Senate's plate this fall is Bill 1522, the Hunting Heritage Protection Act, which the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources will review and which would establish federal recognition of the intrinsic value of hunting as recreation and as a wildlife management tool. Key to the bill, according to the U.S. Sportsmen's Alliance (USSA), is a stipulation for “no net loss of hunting” opportunities, wherein the government is directed to maintain, at the minimum, current levels of federal hunting lands to be open for sportsmen’s use. If federal lands were to be closed to hunting, the no net loss directive requires the opening of compensatory huntable lands. Illinois, Georgia and Maryland already have Hunting Heritage Protection Acts based on the USSA model. The bill is sponsored by Sen. Saxby Chambliss (R-GA), Sen. Ted Stevens (R-AK), Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC) and Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK).
