“More Americans are heading outdoors to hunt and fish for fun, reversing a two-decade-long decline among adults. Eleven percent more Americans (ages 16 and older) fished and 9% more hunted in 2011 than in 2006, according to a new five-year survey from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The kids went, too.

The preliminary state-by-state data were released this month.” (Source: USAToday) To read more, visit http://usat.ly/NTLMNf |
