Ep 97 - Are Hunters Willing to Pay More with Jesse Zeman

Brought to you by Community-Minded Alpine Toyota

 

Jesse Zeman, Executive Director of the BC Wildlife Federation is back on the podcast. Jesse talks about a research project he completed looking at the willingness of hunters to pay for a moose tag under different combinations of moose management models, percentages that license fees contribute to moose management, and how many moose are allotted to hunters. Find out how much hunters would pay if only a portion of their moose license fee were used for managing moose versus all the license fees. Jesse also describes the level of confidence and trust hunters in BC have in the government and what hunters would be willing to pay if BC had a US-style Game Commission or a co-government wildlife management model with First Nations. Finally, find out what a protest vote is and how researchers handle them.
