Satisfaction, valuation, and views toward allocation of Vermont goose hunting opportunities
1992
Glass, Ronald J. | More, Thomas A.
S2Goose hunting opportunities are becoming increasingly limited and demand often exceeds supply. The results of a survey of goose hunters on Dead Creek Goose Management Area in Vermont indicated that hunters were satisfied with the management of the area, approved of the regulations imposed, and enjoyed interacting with management staff. With respect to motivations for goose hunting, the highest satisfaction scores were "sharing experience with friends" and "enjoying the aesthetics of the area," whereas shooting a goose was rated midlevel. The current lottery system to select hunters was preferred over "first-come, first-served" and "pay to hunt" as the means of allocating goose hunting opportunities. Assuming goose hunting permits could be bought and sold, the average price that respondents were willing to pay was $33.34, while the price at which they would sell a permit was $74.44.S3.
