More hunting, few limits: Trump lifts restrictions in national parks and wilderness areas

 The Trump administration is expanding hunting and fishing access on federal lands, including national parks and wildlife refuges, by removing existing restrictions. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum stated the policy is to open lands unless specific exceptions apply. This move aims to boost conservation and rural economies, despite concerns about visitor safety and science-based management. The Trump administration is expanding hunting and fishing access on federal lands, including national parks and wildlife refuges, by removing existing restrictions.
