Wildlife-Related Recreation Participation in Vermont The 2011 Survey found that 512 thousand Vermont residents and nonresidents 16 years old and older fished, hunted, or wildlife watched in Vermont. Of the total number of participants, 207 thousand fished, 90 thousand hunted, and 370 thousand participated in wildlifewatching activities, which includes observing, feeding, and photographing wildlife. The sum of anglers, hunters, and wildlife watchers exceeds the total number of participants in wildlife-related recreation because many of the individuals engaged in more than one wildliferelated activity. Participation in 2011 by 6- to 15-Year-Old Vermont Residents The focus of the National Survey is on the activity of participants 16 years old and older. However, the activity of 6- to 15-year-olds can be calculated using the screening data covering the year 2010. It is assumed for estimation purposes that the proportion of 6- to 15-year-old participants to participants 16 years old and older remained the same in 2010 and 2011. Based on this assumption, in addition to the 105 thousand resident anglers 16 years old or older in Vermont, there were 24 thousand resident anglers 6 to 15 years old. Also, there were 71 thousand Vermonters 16 years old and older and 4 thousand Vermonters 6 to 15 years old who hunted. Finally, there were 273 thousand Vermonters 16 years old and older and 35 thousand Vermonters 6 to 15 years old who wildlife watched. Information on 2010 data for 6- to 15-year-olds is provided in Appendix B. Expenditures in Vermont In 2011, state residents and nonresidents spent $744 million on wildlife recreation in Vermont. Of that total, trip-related expenditures were $179 million and equipment expenditures totaled $361 million. The remaining $204 million was spent on licenses, contributions, land ownership and leasing, and other items.
