FAQ
How many people in the US rely on hunting?
More than 300 million hunters live in the United States. This means that hunters are twice as numerous as those who live in New York City.
Hunting is a American pastime which dates back to centuries. Today, however, hunting for sport is less popular than ever. According to the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service(FWS) says that only 2 per cent of the population hunts on a regular basis. This number is even lower for young adults.
But while hunting may seem like a relic of another time, it remains popular among older generations. Recent research found that 68% of boomers plan on hunting again when they retire. Hunting is for them a way to enjoy the outdoors and connect with nature.
For younger generations hunting is not necessarily a priority. In fact, according to the National Shooting Sports Foundation, only 18 percent of millennials consider themselves avid shooters.
That's why FWS is working hard to make sure that America's wild places remain open for everyone to experience.
To raise awareness about public lands in the country, the agency launched the "Wild Lands” campaign in 2014. This campaign aims to inform people about the importance and encourage people to visit these areas.
The Wild Lands initiative encourages conservation efforts. One example is the partnership between FWS and the National Rifle Association to create a youth shooting sports program called Project Gunter. This program teaches kids how to safely handle firearms and helps them develop skills such as marksmanship and safety.
Project Gunter now includes women and minorities. This has led to more children learning how to use guns and becoming active participants in wildlife conservation.
