Episode #1109: Mike Brasher
Q: Why are mallard numbers down, and what does habitat have to do with it?
Mallards are down largely due to multi-year drought affecting prairie pothole habitats; when wetlands dry, production drops, and even after wet periods, population trends reflect that habitat-driven carryover rather than harvest alone.
Episode #1109: Mike Brasher
Q: What is Adaptive Harvest Management and how does it influence hunting seasons?
AHM is a data-driven framework that uses population models to determine the optimal regulatory strategy, including days and bag limits, to sustain waterfowl populations while maximizing hunting opportunities.
