The closing of private land is part of the reason for a nation decline in hunting, according to hunters and state fish and wildlife agencies. Hunters also cite crowding as a drawback. For their part, private landowners indicate that illegal trespass and damage to their property are the primary reasons for their restricting public access. Terry Messmer, wildlife Extension specialist in the Fisheries and Wildlife Department at Utah State University, says that most states have implemented programs to encourage landowners to improve fish and wildlife habitat and maintain better hunter access. He says that Utah, through its Cooperative Wildlife Management Unit Program and Wildlife Habitat Authorization funds has opened more than 1 million acres of private rangeland to Utah hunters.
