Mike McEnroe, of the North  Dakota Wildlife Federation, said about 100 complaints have been filed  annually from 2008 to 2016 concerning trespassing violations.I have a problem with grassroots sportsmen allowing this man to represent them. He also serves as a lobbyist for the wildlife society, is a former federal employee and admitted that he and Dick Monson made the decision to accept $150,000 from the Humane Society of the United States to fund their TV ads during the Fair Chase Folly in 2010. People just like Mike McEnroe in Michigan collected the signatures to ban dove hunting and then allowed the HSUS to spend $1.6 million to buy the ban vote. Who exactly is doing the dividing?Bill Helphrey, of the North Dakota Bowhunting Association, said trespass  laws may work in Wyoming or Montana, where land is kept in large tracts  held by one owner and where there is ample public land for hunting. But  North Dakota, he said, is only 9.1 percent public land.Bill Helphrey was a cheerleader during the HFI and there is that, "land land we need more public land theme again." </blockquote>
