EP 299. Texas Market Hunting, Game Laws, and Outlaws Part 2: Outlaw Gunners and Stings

Following the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, which outlawed commercial sale of wildlife, the American public's demand for wild-harvested tablefare continued -- and there were folks that were more than happy to feed this lucrative demand, supplying barrel- and boat-loads of wild ducks and geese through backwater channels. In the second of this 2-part series, historic author Robert K. Sawyer describes a transitioning America, especially as it pertains to Texas, grappling with wildlife food versus conservation and later, conservation versus something that might only be described as recreation. Law enforcement may have started slowly, but culminated in a series of headliner busts that finally got folks attention. Part 1 of this 2-part series aired Wednesday, October 19, 2022.
