About this episode
One this episode we are once again joined by Dr. Phil Lavretsky of UTEP to update us on the very important Duck DNA project. As you might recall Phil has dedicated the last five years to understanding the game farm mallards genes that have been present in the Atlantic Flyway but are now starting to pop up elsewhere. It’s a scary situation and much is been done to raise money to fund his research. We discuss what was recently found in Canada, what the genes show here and in Europe, hybrids and their occurrence, how you can participate and help, goose DNA, plus we discuss the new Mossy Oak Duck Stamp. It’s a duck hunters podcast that needs to be shared with all waterfowlers. Listen, Learn and Enjoy. Send a text message to the show!
