Thanks for posting that, it's a great idea.


Yes, I agree also, a high percentage of public lands in Wisconsin were purchased with hunting, trapping and fishing fees. Plus the Pittman-Robertson excise tax helps fund wildlife management.

The hikers, birders, tree huggers, wolf huggers, etc. need to put their money where there mouth is.
