Thoughts on the legacy of QDMA and the ending of an era What the National Deer Alliance leadership learned over its five years of existence What NDA can bring to the new org from a policy perspective The big wins and wishes that the new org hopes to see come to fruition Why we the hunters are the most important part of this new era in deer conservation What we need to do in the coming day and years to make a positive difference for deer Connect with Mark Kenyon and MeatEaterMark Kenyon on Instagram , Twitter , and FacebookMeatEater on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and YoutubeShop MeatEater MerchSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
