If you care about wildlife, vote no on Colorado’s Initiative 302. The hunting and trapping communities would have you believe that this initiative is simply going to codify the "right to hunt and fish" into the Colorado constitution. However, it is much more. It seeks to establish hunting and trapping as the preferred method of wildlife management, while eliminating more holistic methods that might be possible, and the ultimate will of the people of Colorado.
