These are high-quality, local jobs. The city, county, and neighbors have historically supported what we do because of the social, economic, and philanthropic benefits we bring to the region.
We are astonished by the recent Minnesota Department of Natural Resources order banning the use of traditional ammunition on 56 scientific and natural areas (SNAs) across the state.

Minnesota DNR bans lead ammo on 56 state scientific and natural areas where hunting is allowed

The Minnesota DNR issued an order in late June that will require hunters to use nontoxic, lead-free ammunition when hunting on 56 state scientific and natural areas where hunting is allowed.
The new order was signed June 27 by DNR Commissioner Sarah Strommen, a move that stopped short of banning lead fishing tackle on SNAs and prohibiting lead ammunition at state parks for special hunts, which was sought by a coalition of conservation groups headed by Friends of Minnesota Scientific and Natural Areas. Federal Ammunition on Monday criticized the commissioner’s order.
