. Biennial report, Montana Game and Fish Commission, State of Montana. Montana Fish and Game Commission; Game protection; Wildlife conservation; Fisheries. All avenues of communications are utilized in the Fish and Game Department's Information-Education program. Film center technicians shoot final footage while preparing a fish and game film. INFORMATION-EDUCATION DIVISION Montanans have characteristically been an outdoor people, and outdoors to a large percentage of them is synonomous with hunting and fishing. Probably no other resource or activity in Montana is subject to as much controversy as is game, its management and regulation. The controversy is not limited to hunters, but embraces landowners who may or may not hunt, other state and federal resource agencies, nature lovers, anti-gun elements, pro-gun elements, guides and outfitters, sports dealers and nearly every other segment of our citizenry. The management of game and regulation of its hunting affects so many people in so many ways that controversy, often heated, is chronic and inevitable. Sound information, however, can help to keep these controversies constructive rather than destructive. Each week there are hundreds of inquiries for specific information made to the Fish and Game Department. Many of these inquiries can be answered with prepared literature, but special letters are prepared for those which cannot. In addition, a monthly publication, "Montana Outdoors" is distributed to sports groups, legislators, schools and to other Montanans who request it. The magazine "Montana Wildlife" is published on an irregular schedule as time permits its preparation. On most Fridays almost 800 news releases are mailed to newspapers, TV and radio stations, sportswriters, legislators, county attorneys, and other important sources. The Friday release date has been chosen as it comes the nearest to satisfying both daily and weekly papers. Feature stories are prepared also, assistance is given
