JONES : Well, hopefully if you take that course I talked about you 



won't be shooting cows. There are insurance policies out right today. 

 As a matter of fact, the Wildlife Management Institute is supporting 

 quite an insurance program that will insure any damage that the hunter 

 performs so that the private landowner will be more willing to accept 

 the private hunter. And they hope that this will catch fire to maybe 

 get more private lands open. You may wonder why a person in the 

 Forest Service is talking so much about private land but you know, you 

 realize that 70 percent of the lands around here that have wildlife on 

 them, are private land.

STEVE BAYLESS : Welcome to the thrid day of our Intermountain 

 Outdoor Symposium and before going on with the panel I'm to moderate 

 this morning, I want to say thanks to all of you who have participated 

 here during the meeting. I think it's been a very interesting, 

 enlightening meeting for many of us... very thought 



provoking. . .somewhat discouraging in some aspects, in terms of what 

 we probably can expect in the future here in Montana and in the West. 



But now in the third day, we come to what I will refer to as the 

 "meat" of the meeting. The all important communications, which to me 

 means the life or death of the future. Some of the things important to 

 us in this state and to me personally are the lifestyle we've heard so 

 much about during the presentations, the demands for our resources 

 and the future impacts we in the West will feel as life in the United
