[QUOTE="Prairie Sasquatch, post: 2878311, member: 124243"] I don’t understand the dynamics of PA and the game populations. The answers given by Game & Fish bureaucrats for some particular issue doesn’t often align with their own stated objectives. In their defense they are dealing with a dynamic system that’s hardly predictable both in regards to animal populations and hunter adaptations to new regulation and the integration of new technology. Why is hunting participation decreasing? In my mind it’s human evolution and neuro-chemical. People can get the same dopamine hit from playing video games without leaving the couch as they can going out hunting. It’s less energy expenditure for the same neuro/chemical result. Given humans are wired biologically to use the least amount of calories for a given return on investment the results are predictable. My wife works with a bunch of gals whose husbands and boyfriends main hobby is playing video games. [/QUOTE]
