    Great show and I really enjoyed the history of wildlife management. I'm old enough to remember much of this. When I was a boy my father showed me a deer print in his corn field, and it was so exciting it was as if we saw a bigfoot. Deer were just starting to come back to the area. Rabbits, quail, grouse and pheasant were everywhere but no big game. In those days I could not walk my beagle through the backyard without seeing rabbits sitting in every corner of the lot. Now all that has changed. Those days are never coming back and although this show mentioned the root causes as loss of habitat, chemicals, and consolidated commercial farms, that is not the main cause. When I was young, I never saw big game or predators. There were no hawks, owls, foxes, coyotes, and bobcats. Now predators are everywhere and controlling much of the small game populations. Today I can see a group of deer walking through my father's backyard every evening, but I won't see a rabbit sitting out in the open in that same backyard all Summer.

      I would have never thought as a kid all those years ago that coyotes would be common. A coyote is a western animal. And now people are seeing armadillos. Change is constant.

    Original airing date?

      That was my question too. I'll guess late 70's, early 80's.

    Wow I think releasing elks is excellent.
    I saw a 1940 magazine it said Georgia had a moose season back then but nobody talks about it.
    I live in Ohio other than a few Turkey some ducks some canadian geese,....I doubt their are any Quail, or grouse or Phesant.
    Quail were everywhere in the 70's then gone.
    I saw a few grouse in the 80's but none sense.
    And the only Pheasant I had seen were released.

    I have live to see deer populations explode, turkey make a comeback, elk restored in E.KY. Black bear making a comeback in parts of the state. Bobcats becoming more popular. Hawks everywhere, coyotes lurking in most of the state. But with predator numbers being what they are small game will most likely remain where it's at.

    its happening to our Grouse in Harlan now, see 5 birds they will be 20 hunters killing them . not that the dept. of wildlife care about that, they too busy worrying about the big game/big money hunts. gotta get that out of state money in dont you.
