why would someone stop supporting hunting and trapping because they got old and infirm
my aunt is 90 and still loves having us up to hunt anything we want.
we do some chores and help with projects any time we go , but also take advantage of a free bed and roof over our heads.
make sure to take her out for supper or bring food.
if you have a land owner who used to let you hunt and trap and now doesn't I expect it is much like my situation we got told politely no when we asked last year , now year after year the land owner said oh Pete , thanks for asking but you don't have to ask you can hunt. Well her husband passed last year , the daughter moved back into the picture and she is a real Lib so mom who is the land owner now , who was my contact for the last 10 years as her husband was not in great health for a while he passed at 92 , she is probably close to 20 years younger. she even said Pete I am not against hunting , just please no not this year. reading between the lines , daughter is back and so viscously anti that mom who needs help doesn't want a fight.
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

I do a class during our firearms training classes teaching kids that trapping is necessary for good conservation. Of course, all of us instructors promote hunting and trapping or we wouldn't be there teaching kids. They are the future.
The difference between animals and humans is that animals would never let the dumbest ones lead the pack.

Most support hunting and trapping, unless it differs from their way. Fur trappers don’t like management trappers. Stand hunter’s don’t like dog hunters. Trappers don’t like thermal hunters. Archery hunters don’t like gun hunters. Hunter’s don’t like trappers. Etc…
Don’t believe me, get on other social media sites and post something above and you’ll see all sorts of comments and even death threats, lol.
I’d say most on here support it regardless whether it’s “their” way or not. Some don’t. Just read the comments through the years and you’ll see. this is a good point. In my case I opposed some of the legal fishing that was allowed. Finally it got banned. Salmon Snagging, brings out the worst in people and the worst type of people plus it was just unethical way to fish. Glad it was banned.

How many still support hunting and trapping , if they're not able to participate in the sports?
Define support. OK I get it, what I mean is do you still get hunting /trapping or fishing licenses , even if you don't use them for whatever reason? Same with supporting State Trapping organizations , or gun rights organizations? I know even though I can't take advantage of them , that they're still an important part of life and needs to be passed on. Same as life it's self.

Agreed , only time I would disagree is if they do everything they can to destroy a sport of any kind , to benefit themselves , either financially , or for property rights.

As far as license are concerned I buy our Sportsman Combo license, trapping license, and duck stamp every year whether I need them or not. I’m a member of trapping orgs, not sure which ones, but they get my money every year. In fact, I think some are on an automatic withdrawal every year. I don’t care how you hunt, fish, or trap. I’d prefer folks stay legal when they can, but do understand when they might have to step out of bounds on some things down here.

There really is no reason to "step out of bounds" on any game and fish law or regulation.
