Results of the 2004-2005 Illinois Trapper Survey

Part of: Electronic Documents of Illinois

A stratified random sample of 722 persons who purchased a 2004 resident Illinois trapping license was surveyed after the furbearer trapping season. Self-administered questionnaires were mailed to 684 of the licensees, and 540 (79%) returned questionnaires (n = 535 useable). Trapping license sales increased 11% from 2003 (2,871 licenses) to 2004 (3,194). Trappers set an average of 24.4 traps for 30.6 days during the 2004-2005 season, and they harvested an estimated 168,367 furbearers (a 21% increase from the 138,843 furbearers harvested in 2003-2004). We documented sightings of uncommon furbearers by trappers, fur harvest by hunting, season date preferences, and knowledge/interest in educational materials.

Part of: Electronic Documents of Illinois

Access to lands for hunting is a serious problem in Illinois. To determine need and support for a private land access program, four mail surveys were conducted from August 2000 through April 2001. Resident hunters, landowners, participants in Access Illinois Outdoors AIO , and landowners enrolled in AIO were each surveyed for attitudes toward private land access, perspectives on a statewide private land access program, and hunting quality in Illinois. The results of these surveys are the basis of this report.

Results of the 2003-2004 Illinois Hunter Harvest Survey

Part of: Electronic Documents of Illinois

A random sample of 3,000 potential hunters was selected from the 2003 Illinois Habitat Stamp stubs and license sales. The sample was evenly divided between each sample frame (1,500 from each frame). An eight page questionnaire was mailed to 2,886 of the 3,000 individuals sampled from the 2 sample frames. We received 1,891 (66%) returned questionnaires, 1,879 of which were usable. License sales increased 1.4% from the 2002 season (289,000) to the 2003 season (293,000). Comparisons of results from 2002-03 season to 2003- 04 season suggest harvest estimates increased for 5 game animal categories (pheasant, dove, woodcock, gray squirrel, and coyote), decreased for 7 categories (rabbit, quail, fox squirrel, raccoon, red fox, gray fox, and opossum), and could not be calculated for 1 category (gray partridge). Use of the internet by hunters and types of hunting licenses purchased were profiled, as were attitudes toward wildlife and wildlife management and some general information about hunters.

Research at a glance

Part of: Electronic Documents of Illinois

This issue of Research at a Glance is a quick fact sheet summarizing findings from Research Bulletin, A profile of Class 4 felony offenders sentenced to prison in Illinois, by ICJIA research analysts. This data is consistent with previous research indicating that Class 4 offenders have lengthy criminal backgrounds and relatively short stays in prison. Examination of these trends is useful to justice practitioners and policymakers as they determine whether incarceration is appropriate for this population of offenders.
