Abstract

This project quantifies the spending and economic contributions associated with hunting, fishing, and wildlife-viewing recreation in 2016 on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lands across 12 target states. These states make up the Western region and reflect significant BLM landholdings (see list of states in Table ES-1 below). Specific estimates for big game, small game, upland game birds, waterfowl, predator, and other hunting are also provided.
