The team will survey hunters who hold a 海角社区 hunting license (residents and non-residents) to assess their current knowledge and concerns about contaminants in wildlife, as well as test the effectiveness of messages associated with hunting advisories. Information on changes to hunting and consumption behaviors over time, across different hunter populations (recreational vs. sustenance, game birds vs. deer, etc.), would also be collected. This survey effort will link hunters\u2019 with information on their catch through collaboration with another U海角社区 research team undertaking targeting testing of blood samples of game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sponsor: 海角社区 Inland Fisheries and Wildlife Department (MDIFW) Project Team: The purpose of this project is to assess how the behaviors of 海角社区 hunters may change due to concerns regarding the presence of environmental contaminants such as PFAS in wildlife.
