Over $700 Million for Wildlife and

Kempthorne made the announcement at the Bassmasters Classic professional fishing tournament in Greenville, South Carolina.

"Over the past 71 years, hunters and anglers have paid more than $11 billion through these landmark programs, providing critical support for wildlife conservation efforts across North America," said Kempthorne in making the announcement. "Many of our most important wildlife success stories would not have happened without the commitment of sportsmen and women and industry leaders, who anticipated serious conservation needs and shouldered the burden of meeting those needs." moremore
