Why habitat and wildlife need hunting as a conservation tool

This week on Hard Truths of Conservation, Dan Cabela and the crew head to South Africa where they take a look at how land ownership plays a vital role in sustaining the hunting model, which the country depends so much on. They also roll up their sleeves and help with ground-breaking white rhino conservation efforts in the area, placing state-of-the-art AI collars on several animals.

From there, they’re off to Nevada to partake in some hands-on, wild-sheep conservation studies to better understand how the hunting community is helping fund population recoveries.
