Small game hunting is open on a portion of the refuge.
The Fish and Wildlife Service has had an agreement with the Army to continue its hunting program, but they're considering changes to the agreement due to budget problems.
And he's saying... Is it expensive to let dudes hunt?
Well...
think it has to do with staffing okay um they had a big rally in madison about the possible closer of the refuge there's an online petition that you can sign and this guy is telling folks to write to their uh write to their senators and voice support for big oaks nwr funding that's funny because i don't think there's a day that goes by that there's not a rally in madison
Yeah.
So it's 50,000 acres.
There's 6,000 hunters annually that take advantage of this.
And essentially, the refuge manager retired last year.
following rob following this guy's retirement refuge staff were cut from five employees to a single off-site manager and then last month uh there was a notification that it was going to consider uh severing the mou with the army which would close the refuge altogether so again this is one of those opportunities where if you don't speak up no one else is going to um and yeah i mean
There's not a ton of, like in the Midwest, any acre of public land is immensely valuable.
We kind of take it for granted out here, living in Montana.
But Indiana can't afford to lose 50,000 acres of public land.
So make your choice heard.
No, he didn't put that in.
No, no, no.
I was trying to get to the call to action.
He says that.
It was an oversight.
A small interior portion of the refuge is closed to hunting because the Indiana National Guard uses it as an air-to-surface test range.
