You asked for us to go on OFFENSE - Colorado could soon become one of the next major battlegrounds in the fight to protect hunting, fishing, trapping, wildlife management, and the future of conservation in America.

In this episode of Through the Gates, Daniel Gates sits down with Travis Thompson of the International Order of T. Roosevelt (IOTR) to break down Colorado’s proposed Constitutional Right to Hunt & Fish amendment — what it means, why it matters, and why supporters believe it’s critical to protecting science-based wildlife management for future generations.

Travis shares how Florida successfully passed a similar constitutional amendment with nearly 67% voter approval, while Daniel explains how Colorado’s recent battles over mountain lion hunting, fur bans, trapping, predator politics, and wildlife ballot initiatives have shaped the urgency behind this effort.

This episode dives deep into:

• Colorado’s Right to Hunt & Fish initiative
• Science-based wildlife management
• Proposition 127 & Ordinance 308
• The North American Model of Wildlife Conservation
• Hunting, trapping, and fishing rights
• Animal rights activism & ballot box biology
• Oregon’s controversial IP 28 initiative
• The future of conservation in Colorado
• Why sportsmen, ranchers, and outdoor advocates are paying attention

Whether you hunt, fish, ranch, recreate outdoors, or simply care about Colorado wildlife, this conversation explains why many believe this constitutional amendment could shape the future of wildlife policy across the West.
