Episode Details

Jim Akenson has led a full and adventurous life. He and his wife, Holly, spent over two decades living in the extremely remote Frank Church Wilderness where they served as caretakers for University of Idaho's Taylor Research Station. While  at Taylor, Jim and Holly studied bighorn sheep, cougars, bobcats, wolves, and made countless contributions to our understanding of wildlife biology. For the past 5 years, Jim was the Conservation Director for Oregon Hunters Association, and recently became their Northeast Director of the Board. As a hunter and naturalist, Jim is the perfect advocate for western hunters and is probably the best person to explain all the proposed changes that will likely impact archery hunting in Oregon.
