[QUOTE="MickThompson, post: 5057525, member: 3172"] Right now there are very good incentives for land managers to improve habitat through the farm bill programs. As far as predator control goes, that's a tougher but to crack, as all birds of prey are federally regulated, and all the mammalian predators are also fur bearers, and there's another group of sportsmen that want an adequate population of them. Raccoons are a whole different issue altogether. I'd say one good step would be to quit feeding corn to wildlife. The aflatoxin risk for turkeys is well documented as is the elevated predation risk at bait sites. And you're subsidizing nest raider populations. [/QUOTE]
