Mississippi Outdoors Podcast explores conservation funding

A new episode of the Mississippi Outdoors Podcast is now available.

In the episode, Russ Walsh, director of conservation at the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks (MDWFP), explains where license revenue goes. Walsh says the money from hunting and fishing licenses is not just permission to hunt but a direct investment in conservation projects.

He notes that these funds have helped restore populations of deer, turkey, and other wildlife. Walsh emphasizes that license sales support ongoing efforts to maintain healthy ecosystems in Mississippi.
