Thought I would share this bit of data we received from a rep today, recently released by the US F&WS.
"Of the 62.9 million residential wildlife watchers, 46 percent (28.8 million) were males, and 54 percent (34.1 million) were females. Two age groups—the 35- to 44-year-olds (14.1 million) and the 45- to 54-year-olds (13.9 million)—each comprised 22 percent of all residential wildlife watchers. Individuals 55 to 64 years old represented 16 percent of all residential participants (10.1 million). The 65 years old and older group accounted for 12.5 million people—20 percent of all residential participants. The 25- to 34-year-old participants totaled 8.1 million, comprised 13 percent of all residential participants. The 18 to 24-year-old group numbered 2.7 million and comprised 4 percent of all participants."
What can I say? We gals are doing our best to keep an eye on wildlife. That includes you guys, so behave yourselves.
