How many Americans rely on hunting for their livelihood?
The United States has more than 300 million hunting dogs. This means that hunters are twice as numerous as those who live in New York City.
Hunting is a American pastime that has existed for hundreds of years. But today, fewer Americans hunt for sport than ever before. According to the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS), only 2 percent of the population hunts regularly. Even lower is the number of young adults who hunt regularly.
But while hunting may seem like a relic of another time, it remains popular among older generations. A recent survey found that 68 percent of baby boomers plan to hunt again when they retire. Hunting is an opportunity to reconnect with nature and experience the outdoors.
For younger generations, however hunting isn’t necessarily a priority. According to National Shooting Sports Foundation, 18% of millennials don't consider themselves to be avid shooters.
FWS works hard to ensure that America's wild places are accessible to all.
The agency launched "Wild Lands", a campaign to raise awareness of public lands across the nation in 2014. This campaign aims to inform people about the importance and encourage people to visit these areas.
Conservation efforts are also encouraged through the Wild Lands Program. FWS and National Rifle Association collaborated to create Project Gunter a youth shooters program. This program teaches kids how to safely handle firearms and helps them develop skills such as marksmanship and safety.
Project Gunter now includes women and minorities. The result is that more children learn how to shoot guns, and are active participants in wildlife conservation.
