It is difficult to characterize the changes in our hunters over the 14-year period, other than to indicate they have less interest and are less successful at killing game. In some ways they seem less sympathetic toward responsible game management and sportsmanlike conduct. Greater age, and presumable experience, does not promote, at least for this group of hunters, a greater appreciation and sympathy for professional wildlife management nor for hunting as a sport as defined by our series of questions. Our respondents are influenced by greater urbanization, lower game populations, fewer places to hunt and changing social and economic values. We also do not know if these hunters are representative of all hunters in Ohio or hunters in other states. Responses from this small sample of hunters, questioned after 14 years, suggested that state and federal agencies responsible for game management cannot depend on greater experience and maturity as factors for the enhancement of greater understanding and support for scientific game management, nor for improved hunting ethics.
