In this episode, Andrew McKean and I discuss a survey that found worrisome trends regarding public approval of hunting. We also discuss mentorship, influence and how a shift in hunting terminology from "trophy hunting" to "organic meat procurement" has not really had the expected effect on public approval. McKean is the hunting and conservation editor at Outdoor Life. His article about the survey is available at Outdoorlife.com.
