Not everyone with a Save the Louisiana Black bear license plate is a hunter, and not everyone in the National Wild Turkey Federation hunts turkeys. Many birdwatchers give money to Ducks Unlimited as well and they don't hunt but they are not against hunting and realize that money used for ducks benefits a suite of other species. The same habitat that whooping cranes use is the same habitat that other waterbirds use (even ones we get to hunt), its all connected.
