Bighorn Sheep Population Management: Excise Taxes & Wildlife Conservation | Partner with a Payer
This video highlights the crucial role of excise taxes from firearm and ammunition manufacturers in funding Bighorn Sheep population management and broader wildlife conservation efforts. It explains how these taxes, collected through the Pittman-Robertson Act since 1937, are distributed via the Wildlife and Sport Fish Restoration program. The initiative 'Partner with a Payer' aims to strengthen the connection between tax-paying manufacturers, sportsmen, state wildlife agencies, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, emphasizing how this funding benefits numerous species and provides enjoyment for hunters and non-hunters alike.
