One of Michigan’s biggest news stories of 2014 was the increase of the state’s minimum hourly wage from $7.40 to $8.15 – the first of several increases that have culminated in the current minimum wage of $12.48, with additional increases scheduled over the next four years.
Other changes deployed since then to help workers keep up with ever-increasing costs of goods and services include multiple Cost of Living Adjustments (COLA) for all Michigan state employees – including those employed by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources Wildlife Division. One thing that hasn’t changed since 2014 is the cost of a hunting license.

When Bob Hines was growing up in the 1910s and 1920s in Fremont, Ohio, he was always tending to animals. His back yard was a wildlife menagerie, and at any given time he’d have turtles, skunks, quail, ducks, fish, crows, and more in his care.
He was naturally inclined to love the outdoors and all things wild, and he spent his free time camping along the Sandusky River, fishing and hunting.
