' ,Run the Gauntlet Let's nottorger that waterfowl are migratory and run the gauntlet of hunters with an open Se08011 starting Sept. 1 in Alaska 12 in Puerto Rico, a to period of five. months. 12 days., Strangely enough most of the hunters with whom we have been .talking, feel hurt if they do not take limit every time they go into the market. In the season just past this al- most - happened--25 of - the-- , 35 days- - of- the Utah hunt were made to order. As for the local exceptions, there-i- t and alwayse case-here there where the weather is extremetoo hot or too cold. And it is then that the local hunter feels-- , that he bas been discriminated against.

About the four-duIbnit 1 feel more people are satisfied with this limit than one woulo believe.---Durin- g. my time in have talked with the field many hunters and most of them said they felt that this was the first time they more -- nearly bagged their fair share of ducks and geese. On the other hand they felt that the man who hunted on the select hunting club averaged a near limit throughout the season, regard- less of bag limit size.. . Important Aid It Is probable that the average hunter Ills not familiar with by-- - the do go which are feeding and resting grounds and which aid in producing more birds for everyone. The people who prescribe our regulations seem to have the country's waterfowl hunting at heart and are trying to save a great American sport so that there will be a great harvest of the duck and geese crop every year.- After all, they are the legal custodians of out publicly-owne- d natural resources, and not the owners L.ta tome- - would have you believe, all of the duck hunters in the U. S. bagged as many ducks as 'were taken by the average Utahn this year there is every reason to believe it would be- come necessary to have a closed season thia fall to maintain a populationsuitablefor national , cropping. , The plain fact Ia that bunter itveragtd more birds last 'ear during the curtailed limit shoot than he did in 194d. ,This, then, did not meet the require-man- ta which brought about the restricted regulations, that of reducing the overall take. And there is no argument that there were more birds in 1947 than in ' 1946. What is the reason? On Oct 22 a heavy freeze up In Wyoming and Idaho gave Utah a heavy increase in birds. Utah -did not have freeze-up weather until January. Utah, for this reason, wintered many more birds last winter than in 1946. This fact has created a distorted national waterpictureofthe fowl Irene for the Utah hunter... - Belong Ts All It is often said that we in Utah produce as many ducks and geese right here as we kill. This, we think, gives us the right to a bigger kill. But these resources are our wildlife heritage and belong equally to the child in New York City or the rugged hunttr - - In Nevada.
