A new episode of the Mississippi Outdoors Podcast is now available. The episode features Russ Walsh, director of conservation at the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks, who explains where license fees go.

Walsh discusses how revenue from hunting and fishing licenses funds conservation programs that have helped restore populations of deer, turkey, and other wildlife. He emphasizes that the fees are more than just permits to hunt or fish; they are investments in wildlife management.
