[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 201750, member: 704"] SDMF that sure doesn't look good. I would rather it was the nature conservancy. I wish we hunters had an organization large enough to do something like that. I like the idea, but I don't like the people doing it. Your right it doesn't look good. Fly Carpin you don't believe there are different rules for different people? In Jamestown the businesses didn't want Walmart, but they couldn't stop them. In Jamestown the lumber yards didn't want Minnards, but they couldn't stop them. In North Dakota the landowners didn't like conservation organizations so I think it was 1977 the legislature passed a law that they had to have permission of the county commissioners and the governor to purchase land. They will tell you they have approved purchases. Look and see how much. It's sort of like letting Minnards bring in only their paint and stains. Edit: The original conservationists were hunters. Hunters who understood the damage of the market hunters and the destruction of habitat. How the neck did we get usurped by people like those SDMF listed? Did we just loose steam once we corrected the bad things and then let it go? I guess we still have small groups like the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation etc. [/QUOTE]
