EP 729. The Million-Acre Plantation We Created: What's Next? (2/2)
(Part 2/2) More than a million acres of marginal Delta cropland were retired and planted in bottomland hardwoods. Thirty years later, those trees have grown and--if we want to ensure wildlife utilization and habitat quality--the next chapter is serious hardwood management. Wildlife biologist Kevin Nelms explains how changing soils and hydrology shape the new landscape, how timber stand improvement improves wildlife habitat, timber stand improvement techniques, how putting sunlight back onto the ground benefits ducks, deer, songbirds and more. Most importantly, how do landowners, agencies and NGOs accomplish this without a viable hardwood pulp market? A must-listen episode for bottomland hardwood habitat managers and hunters, but everyone will appreciate gaining insights into taking the extraordinary conservation achievement of a million-acre hardwood plantation to the next level.

EP 728. Holding the Fort
What happens when some of America's most important waterfowl habitats no longer have the people, equipment and resources needed to make them work? After a 33-year Service career spanning 7 states and 2 flyways, lifelong duck hunter and former refuge manager Gary Zahm (now a renowned outdoor photographer and writer) has watched the waterfowl landscape change from the ground up. From California's Grasslands and Kesterson to the larger continental habitat system, Zahm brings a lifetime of hard-earned perspective to what we've lost, what still works--and what--and who --it will take to rebuild. Because if we want abundant ducks, we need abundant habitat. And if we want abundant habitat, we're going to have to hold the fort--together!

EP 726. Hunting Ducks a Different Man
What if having everything you thought you wanted actually took you somewhere you never intended to go? Shane Allen grew up hunting, dove headlong into heavy metal and a hard-living lifestyle, then one day woke up a very lucky--and changed--man. Today, the wildlife biologist and Hedge Hailer Game Calls founder lives by three simple phrases: Love God. Love People, Hunt Ducks. But getting there required a reckoning. Today's story is about ducks, choices, consequences--and becoming a different man.

EP 725. Where's Your Raft?
Everyone wants more ducks. But when ducks disappear, where do you go looking for answers? As duck numbers continued declining around their Mississippi hunting grounds, Pete Fulgham and friends asked a pointed question: "Where's our raft?" The search for answers le to a nearby refuge struggling with fewer employees, fewer resources, less habitat--and fewer ducks than anyone could remember, let alone during its heyday. Complaining was pointless. They decided to do something. Their efforts became Yazoo Waterfowl Partners--and has since inspired a much bigger idea about hunters putting more skin in the game to restore America's national wildlife refuges. And ducks. If your truly care about ducks and the places they depend on, hear what happens when duck hunters quit waiting on someone else to fix things. Then ask yourself: Where's your raft?

EP 723. Tradition Bearers--Last Marsh Voices
Traditions survive because someone carries them forward by sharing stories. Dale Bordelon grew up among Louisiana marsh men, unforgettable old-timers carrying generational knowledge and stories of bygone life ways. Historian Jason Theriot spent 25 years doing likewise, exploring Louisiana's cultural heritage across Gulf Coast communities. Together, we revisit old camps, cane calls, vanished marshes, unbelievable hunts and colorful characters from a yesteryear Louisiana that few remember today. Duck hunters. Tradition bearers. Last remaining marsh voices. ********** LEARN MORE--Center for Louisiana Studies Wildlife and Waterfowl Heritage, Documenting Louisiana's Wetlands, Waterfowl and Other Outdoor Traditions and Youtube Video Ducks, Dinner and Dale Bordelon ********** Visit the Legendary Brands That Make MOJO's Duck Season Somewhere Podcast Possible: MOJO Outdoors Alberta Professional Outfitters Society Benelli Shotguns Bow and Arrow Outdoors Create the X Habitat Management App Ducks Unlimited Flash Back Decoys GetDucks.com Migra Ammunitions onX Maps Use code GetDucks25 to save 25% Sitka Gear SoundGear Use code GetDucks20 to save 25% Tom Beckbe USHuntList.com Like what you heard?
