Our
Mission:
Is to ensure that
decisions
concerning the management of our furbearing wildlife in Massachusetts are based on
science, not politics or emotional ideology. We intend to help the residents of
Massachusetts become better informed and educated on important furbearer wildlife
management activities and the necessary tools that
are currently severely restricted in Massachusetts. In addition to people
who are, or wish to become actively involved in the management of our resident
furbearing wildlife, the intended audience includes those who have no desire to
participate themselves, but are willing to listen. The goal is to allow
all citizens to form their own opinions concerning management methods and
activities based on scientific inquiry and fact, not emotion or personal
ideology. We intend to provide factual information on furbearer management
and create knowledgeable, well informed individuals who will then have the tools
to answer tough questions based
on decades of valuable conservation work and entire careers. Everyone benefits
from a reasonable, responsible, and flexible state regulated approach to wildlife
management. However, in order for this to happen, public support is critical,
and education is paramount.
