Over the past year I’ve started to get really interested in upland bird hunting. It’s a sport with amazing tradition, but it’s an old man’s sport. It’s hard for a young guy to get started. That’s why I’m heading to Pheasant Fest in Milwaukee today. It’s the national convention of Pheasants Forever, a St. Paul, MN based non-profit that is “dedicated to the conservation of pheasants, quail and other wildlife through habitat improvements, public awareness, education and land management policies and programs.”
For many people it’s hard to grasp that hunters are often the most effective conservationists; however, it should make sense that people who use a resource are often most likely to fight to protect it. Pheasants Forever is now more than 30 years old, and it’s 120,000+ members and 600+ chapters have contributed to protecting more than 5.3 million acres of habitat. In addition to their locally focused work, they also participate in habitat conservation advocacy at all government levels and a number of conservation education programs. I’m off to learn firsthand about all of Pheasants Forever’s good work at Pheasant Fest, but if you can’t make it today or tomorrow, you may still want to check out their Careers page. Right now they’re looking for an Iowa Farm Bill Biologist (positions in Donnellson, Logan, and Anamosa).
