Howl For Wildlife - HOWL CAST Howl For Wildlife

The Vermont legislature is in the midst of debating and deciding the fate of Senate Bill 258 (S. 258).  Through a well refined political strategy there is a coalition of anti-hunting interests who want to over-turn a proven and successful regulatory framework. S258 would strip rule-making capacity away from the Advisory Board, and give it to a Dept. which is headed up by political appointees. When there's a difference of opinion between the Advisory Board and the Dept., it would be reviewed by the legislature (more politics). Additionally, this legislation strips away the right to use hounds in pursuit of coyote, and eliminates baiting for coyote. There is nothing of value in this legislation, and where it has ambiguity you would be right to distrust the source and future outcomes. 
The anti-hunting industry is committed to upending the most effective regulatory systems in the US, where wildlife and ecosystems have thrived, and hunting opportunity has been prioritized. Non-hunters have benefitted from these systems, because we all want wildlife to succeed on the landscape. The anti-hunters are focused on stripping away human participation in nature - to the detriment of all stakeholders, including wildlife.

Mike Duplan is experienced, knowledgeable and opinionated - which we love! He's been a contributor in the western big game hunting community for more than 2 decades. You'll find his work in Western Hunter Magazine - which features beautiful and inspiring stories of big game hunting. A subscription to Western Hunter is worth every penny. 
Mike recently released this article: Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf and inspired a conversation with HOWLCAST. He knows the landscape and the cultural & political run-up to wolf translocation in CO.  As such Mike Duplan is also tracking the potential ballot initiative which would ban trophy hunting (mtn lion & bobcat to start) in Colorado.  
Listen in as we discuss the culture war that is using charismatic species like wolves and lions to remove hunting rights nationwide, and even go down the rabbit hole of what wolf issues CA will face as the #s there trend toward 100 or more on the landscape.  We talk about the need to support Coloradans for Responsible Wildlife Mgmt (CRWM) as they are the ONLY org ready to fight the attack on hunting  and conservation in Colorado.

Featuring... Shafer. 
Mike Shafer is UT rapper, hunter and creator a Cameron Hanes' bumper music for his Keep Hammering Collective podcast. Shafer epitomizes the concept of being/doing/living outside of people's expectations. In that regard, he is an OUTLIER. Perhaps that's why his raps are so perfect for the KHC podcast intro.  
We talk about rap battles, the creation of the now famous CAM HANES rap, lion hunting and of course HOWL for Wildlife.  This was a fun conversation and with almost 0 context going into it, words flowed easily & we had a good time connecting!  
Look up Shafer and anytime you want to get amped up for a hunt, hike or workout know you can tap into Mike Shafer's CAM HANES high energy.

When we learned that author and hunter Linden Loren had mentioned HOWL for Wildlife into his new book (released 2023), we knew a conversation was needed. HOWL was barely out of the gate with a growing base of support in the US, but this kind of callout set a high bar for trust and belief in our mission. Keep in mind...no author wants their work outdated or obsolete because an organization they refer to is no longer active!! 
Linden has gathered 73 practices, protocols and principles which collectively can add to your Hunting Healthspan. Like it or not, we have a limited # of days in the field, an even more limited # of "opening days" here on Earth.  Your Hunting Healthspan is relatable for hunters who want to live a vibrant life outdoors. Equally important is the reciprocity between human health and hunting, because strength in one will usually add value to the other... Hunting is Human.

HOWL got to chat with Tom Opre, a visionary filmmaker, wildlife conservationist, communicator and leader of the "Shepherds of Wildlife Society".  Tom has decades of encounters where hunting, wildlife, conservation and social issues converge. His team presents educational and compelling stories through powerful visual communication. Mike and Tom talk extensively about the need for hunting as a conservation tool, as well as the need for the hunting community to talk with and gain alignment from non-hunters. We dig into the meaning and threat of "reWilding" and how wildlife and ecosystems may suffer the most if human participation is removed from our natural world.

March 2024 - The battle to protect hunting and wildlife management in Colorado continues. The anti-hunting industry is rallying around deceptive slogans and flat-out lies about the hunting community and the success of conservation, while at the same time these politically supported activists are working to plant agenda driven Commissioners who can steer policy in the coming years. 
In this 5-Minutes with Dan update, we get an view into the workings of Commission nomination and confirmations as well as an update on the status of the proposed hunting ban in Colorado. 
Please listen in, share and join the forces of HOWL for Wildlife, and CRWM to defeat the anti-hunters by supporting communications campaigns that WIN alignment from the non-hunting public.  
Listen, like, share and support - HOWL and CRWM to effect positive outcomes in CO and nationwide.
