Continuous mowing has little value for wildlife. Areas not mowed frequently provide excellent habitat for wildlife to nest, raise young, and forage.
I feel there should be a lot more public hunting areas. And not just some a whole lot more. In most states you can hunt on 50% or more of the public lands. In Maryland it is somewhere around 30%. This is ridiculous and should be changed. We should be able to hunt at least with bow on virtually all state lands and more locale county lands should also be available.
Thank you!
