Today, we're taking a deep dive into the heart of hunting and conservation with the CEO of Safari Club International and the Safari Club International Foundation, Laird Hamberlin. In this episode, we unravel the fabric of conservation efforts, debunk myths about hunters merely seeking trophies, and showcase the crucial role hunting plays in wildlife management.

We'll discuss why conservation isn't just a word but a practice that hunters are deeply committed to—fueling growth and maintaining balance in animal species worldwide. Laird also tells us about SCI's battles on both federal and state levels, their strategic partnerships, and the critical need to counter false narratives with scientifically backed data.
