Well,
no don't need to look that far.
On our own doorstep we have an active Sport Fishing crowd on fresh and salt water, shark
fishing derbys off shore, plenty of Sunday morning hunting and fishing shows on TV with
"Sport" in the title, and then there is Ducks Unlimited.
Sure this organization created a lot of protected waterfowl habitat, and so do other
organizations in this kind of recreational activities in other areas.
Lots of good work is done, important work. But the taste of a self serving purpose often
remains ........
