Abstract:

Zlotnicki describes the NC Wildlife Resources Commission's Game Lands Program.

Dean, Jim

Abstract:

Big questions in wildlife conservation are: who should pay for habitat and how should wildlife money be spent? In the 1930s and 1950s legislation put most the financial burden on hunters and fishermen through taxes on gear and licenses. But now, the Council on Environmental Quality and the US Fish and Wildlife Service are studying a proposed tax on non-hunting and non-fishing users of public wildlife lands in order to protect both game and non-game species and lands.

Abstract:

North Carolina adopted some new legislation regarding hunting in 1975-76. Due to an increase in the deer population, NC hunters will not be able to shoot up to four in the eastern counties. The new regulations also updated the gun season for deer in certain counties between one and two weeks, while closing the season in other counties. Bow and arrow season for deer was shortened to three days. The regulations also tackled seasons for rabbit trapping, bobcats, and migratory birds.

Although any hunting knife is capable of skinning out a big-game animal, standard hunting blades have several features that make the task more difficult. Skinning knives have short, stiff blades with a rounded tip to prevent cutting through the hide.

Finding the perfect boat is a challenge for North Carolina hunters because of the variety of conditions under which they pursue their game. Friends of Wildlife recommend three different types of duck boats, each of which is adapted to a particular kind of hunting. They include a 14’ aluminum canoe, a 12’ fiberglass sneak boat, and a 16’ jon boat.
