1 Other Information:
Barack Obama did not grow up hunting and fishing, but he recognizes the great conservation legacy of America's hunters and
anglers and has great respect for the passion that hunters and anglers have for their sports. Were it not for America's hunters
and anglers, including the great icons like Theodore Roosevelt and Aldo Leopold, our nation would not have the tradition of
sound game management, a system of ethical, science-based game laws and an extensive public lands estate on which to pursue
the sport. Barack Obama and Joe Biden recognize that we must forge a broad coalition if we are to address the great conservation
challenges we face. America's hunters and anglers are a key constituency that must take an active role and have a powerful
voice in this coalition.
