By teaching people to help themselves, the 

 Trapper Instructor approach to predator dam- 

 age control places the responsibility upon the 

 Montana citizen. Certainly, by helping the 

 farmer and rancher to help themselves, the 

 Fish and Game Department is helping to main- 

 tain the integrity of the individual and at the 

 same time keeping pace with modern wildlife 

 management principles. 



A summary of meetings, newspaper articles, 

 radio and TV programs, forums and other 



contacts is given in the following table. 



Wildlife Exhibit 



Each summer the Department's display of 

 native wildlife is scheduled at fourteen state 

 and county fairs. The exhibit has proved to 

 be one of the popular displays at the fairs. 

 Here is an opportunity for Montanans to gain 

 an appreciation and understanding of wildlife. 

 Conflicting fair dates restrict the expansion of 

 the exhibit.
