Cabela Family Foundation and IOTR Partner on Bison Initiative

The Cabela Family Foundation (CFF) and International Order of T. Roosevelt (IOTR) recently announced a new conservation initiative they’re embarking on together as part of their recently launched partnership. The organizations will combine efforts and funding for a research project on plains bison on an island off the coast of Kodiak, Alaska.

“The history of the American Bison and Teddy Roosevelt go hand in hand, as he was largely responsible for saving them from extinction,” said Dan Cabela, Executive Director of the Cabela Family Foundation. “Once I learned about the work being done here toward conservation and community projects, I knew IOTR would want to roll up their sleeves and help.”

“We are committed to working with the Cabela Family Foundation to tackle these strategic conservation initiatives across North America,” said Luke Hilgemann, Executive Director of the International Order of T. Roosevelt. “The buffalo is a crucial part of America’s heritage, and we are proud to be part of such an important effort – an effort that our organization’s namesake would wholeheartedly support.”

In 2017, the Alutiiq Tribe of Old Harbor, Alaska, acquired plains bison, which were subsequently introduced on a large, remote, privately-owned island named Sitkalidak located off the coast of Kodiak. This wild, free-ranging herd coexists with brown bears and has been strictly managed for hunting as a food resource in the remote village community.

Local community leaders, biologists, and researchers recently made an effort to learn more about these bison as they look to expand the herd in years to come. The Cabela Family Foundation and IOTR have stepped in to fund this crucial research as part of a multi-year partnership the two organizations launched in March 2024. Read more

SAF Scores Victory in Pennsylvania Carry Case

BELLEVUE, Wash. —— District Judge Christopher C. Conner with the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania issued an order granting summary judgment to SAF and its partners, finding the state’s law banning carry of a firearm in a vehicle without a license unconstitutional. He further declared that a ban on firearms possession without a license during a state of emergency is facially unconstitutional, and enjoined Pennsylvania State Police Commissioner Col. Christopher Paris from enforcing those provisions.

The court found, however, in favor of Col. Paris with respect to another issue in the case, and dismissed a challenge to another section of the state Uniform Firearms Act of 1995 for lack of standing, without prejudice. The court notes the plaintiffs have the right to file an amended complaint “curing that deficiency.”

In his 44-page memorandum detailing his decision, Judge Conner noted that if an amended complaint is filed, the case will be transferred to the Eastern District for further action.

“Each victory takes us a step further in our efforts to win firearms freedom one lawsuit at a time,” said SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb.

“We will evaluate the judge’s ruling and determine our next course of action,” SAF Executive Director Adam Kraut added. “However, we are pleased that the judge agreed with our position that the ban on carry in a vehicle absent a license is unconstitutional, as many Pennsylvanians were precluded from carrying and transporting firearms, with limited exceptions.” Read more

Best States for the Biggest Elk

By PJ DelHomme 

Using the most up-to-date data from the Boone and Crockett records, we compiled the entries from the last ten years to bring you the states (and counties) that give you the best shot at killing the bull of a lifetime.
bestelk_fb.jpg

Elk of any size are fascinating creatures. Sneak in close enough to hear the mews and chirps of cows and calves and call that a memory. Get between a herd bull and his harem, and you have a real hunting story. Being within earshot of a record-book bull is a once-in-a-lifetime experience for many of us. Sometimes, we get lucky and win the tag lottery. Other times, we burn 20 years’ worth of points to hunt a trophy area. And some hunters pay top dollar to hunt the best areas for the biggest bulls. Regardless of your journey to the record books, it’s always an exciting ride.

The Boone and Crockett Club recognizes four distinct categories of elk: tule, Roosevelt’s, and non-typical and typical American elk. Roosevelt’s and tule elk are found only in western North America, and tule elk are found just in California. Typical and non-typical American elk are found across North America, including east of the Mississippi River.

Fishing Boat Seized After Walleye Tournament Scandal Sold in Auction

The Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Division of Wildlife announced that the fishing boat seized from Chase Cominsky, 37, of Hermitage, Pa., was sold through an online auction Tuesday. Cominsky and Jacob Runyan, 44, of Ashtabula, were convicted in May 2023 of felony cheating and misdemeanor animal ownership charges.

The forfeited boat, a 22-foot Ranger, was sold in an online auction that closed on Tuesday, July 23. The winning bid for the boat was $82,000 with a final price of $96,288.50 including fees and taxes. The boat was offered for sale with its motors and trailer.

With this money, the Division of Wildlife will purchase a new Lake Erie law enforcement patrol vessel for Ohio Wildlife Officers.

In 2022, the Division of Wildlife received a report of individuals cheating during a walleye fishing tournament in Cleveland. The resulting investigation seized a boat, motors, and trailer and penalties included a three-year fishing license revocation for both individuals. Read more
