“secretary of the interior”

The U.S. Department of the Interior on June 19 convened in New York City’s Times Square to destroy ivory confiscated in the “war on poaching,” according to a press release from Interior.

Why do you hunt?

New Secretary of the Interior, Ryan Zinke, issued a pair Secretarial Orders during his first day on the job—both of which make his allegiance with American hunters very clear.

U.S. Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service have announced the winner of the National Junior Duck Stamp Contest: 12-year-old Isaac Schreiber of Duffield, Va.

After 42 years of federal protection, the USFWS has ruled to remove the Yellowstone grizzly bear from the Endangered Species List.

Continuing the DOI’s efforts to enhance conservation stewardship, the order seeks to improve wildlife management and conservation, increase access to public lands for hunting, shooting and fishing and puts a greater emphasis on promoting outdoor activities among youth, veterans and minority communities.

Come one, come all to a four-day family affair you won’t want to miss!

Today's secretarial order drives more resources into wildlife habitat restoration and federal/state/private landowner collaboration.
