Audio Quailty Warning - Zencastr FAILED and Brad had to call into the studio. Our phone call was poorer audio than Brian expects. He apologizes for this show not meeting normal standards from guest audio quality perspective. However, the conversation is too good to not to air.
Data collection - we are all aware of it. Most of us probably acknowledge our privacy is invaded daily but give in to the modern world without much caution. Brian is guilty as charged. He definitely has a love hate relationship with technology and its dark side.
Have you wondered - should I give the Feds the real numbers or just make them up? In all seriousness, Brian as been there. Why do I have to give how many birds I hunted last year (goose, ducks, woodcock, ext.). I had a good season last year - We ate a lot of woodcock. Am I going to draw attention from a Warden if I answer that I harvested 20 woodcock last year? These thoughts I'm sure have crossed your mind as the clerk behind the license machine asks those HIP Certification questions.
Brian and Brad clear the air on HIP. What the data is used for. How submitting information helps hunter opportunity and proper management tools. Even more, How this data helps protect our hunting heritage from encroachments by other governmental agencies.
Brad Bortner' s Background.
Brad spend an extensive amount of his career working for United States Fish and Wildlife Service. After many different roles around Migratory birds he was promoted in 2011 to the Chief for the Division of Migratory Bird Management. THE GUY for all things migratory at USFW. During his tenure, Brad played an vital role implementing the collection and analyzation of data. After sometime the HIP Certification was formally launched as a tool for USFW to understand real harvest and success rates of hunters. This information has been paramount in setting regulations and implementing changes to waterfowl and migratory birds species. The data has impacted our populations, habitat, and opportunity to recreate immensely.
