E 279. Hunting: An Education, Culture and Hobby

<p>Tonight we have the pleasure of speaking with Ronnie Cowan, the Outdoor Recreation Specialist from the the University of Tennessee's Extension Institute of Agriculture. Working for UT, Ronnie teaches students about hunting, fishing, hunting dogs, mock AKC hunt tests, field dressing animals and wild game cooking.... how cool is that? Imagine if we had a program like this at more colleges?</p>
