WI BHA Report 2023: Woodcock Banding
May brings turkey hunting, fishing, and a little known conservation activity called woodcock banding. Woodcock banding involves federally inspected handlers and their dogs finding and safely netting woodcock hens and their chicks in order to band them and study their population.
This episode is all about the woodcock and how much we love them. Your hosts Kelly and Bill are joined by Kyle Daly of the Minnesota Woodcock banding program to talk all things timber doodle, dogs, and conservation.
