It was not based on science as proposal G requires, but was based on \"Social science\" better known as \"feelings and emotions\".\nWe talk about the specifics of what happened at the meeting, and what can be done to ensure that, in the future, decisions on how our wildlife resources are managed are based on facts and science. \nThis is very important information and a battle we need to win, not just in Michigan but everywhere across the country. \n\nAs always, THANK YOU FOR LISTENING!\n\nPredator Thermal Optics code \"ptothermal\" for 10% off all Predator Thermal Optics brand Scopes and Monoculars\nwww.predatorhunteroutdoors.com code: tripod for 10% off tripods and mounts code: light for 20% off lighting products\n Predator Hunter Outdoors\n www.huntwise.com code: OVERDRIVE20 for 20% off an annual membership\n HuntWise\nManiac Outdoors- Code OD15 for 15% off scent fuel products\nORC Archery \nATN \nPrym1 \nHuxWrx"}
