The pheasant stocking program is "Self funded" and is a win win situation for the state. It generates millions of dollars in equipment sales, hotels, food etc. It gets kids off the couch and teaches them responsibility and enviroment. You can see here, that not much thought went into his proposal. This is really a serious situation for the state. Many legislators are attacking hunting in this state. What will the next argument be, Well, we have no pheasants in our state, why do you need have shotguns?
