On this episode of the Adaptive Outdoorsman Podcast, presented by Trackchair, we welcome Ben Myhre, longtime outdoor guide, conservation advocate, and member of the Coalition to Save the Catalina Island Deer. Ben shares his decades-long experience guiding hunters on Catalina Island and discusses the ongoing fight to stop the eradication of the island's historic mule deer population.

In today's episode, we dive into the history of Catalina Island's deer herd, the controversy surrounding California's plans to eliminate the population, and the role hunters have played in wildlife management on the island for more than two decades. Ben explains the challenges facing conservation efforts, the legal battles currently underway, and why he believes responsible wildlife management is critical for the future of hunting and conservation.
