On this episode of GOHUNT’s  Western Rookie Podcast, Brian talks with Dan Gates about the Colorado Ballot Box Initiative to ban hunting for large cats in Colorado!

Dan has been a wildlife and conservationist his entire life and has spent much of that time fighting for our rights to continue hunting and trapping through different groups such as Coloradans for Responsible Wildlife Management and the Colorado Wildlife Council. Dan and his team are currently fighting to block a ballot initiative this fall that would ban hunting of large cats in Coloardo. Brian and Dan talk about some of the serious problems with ballot initiatives and how they have negative impacts on the wildlife balance and our North American Consveration Model. Check out the links below to learn more about Dan and the issues he is working on and to show your support!
