Episode 06: Duck DNA. Dr Phil Lavretsky. Really a Hybrid?

DUCK DNA. Not just talking about it, doing it! Yes, that's right. You as a hunter can actually participate in collecting genetic samples of ducks that you hunt and send them off to a lab for analysis. Ever shot a duck and you didn’t know what it was or thought it was a hybrid? Could’ve sworn you shot a cinnamon teal in early teal season? Thought you killed a Black Duck in Louisiana? Now is your chance to prove yourself right (or wrong). We welcome Dr. Phil Lavretsky from UTEP for an exciting episode about how you as a Hunter can be a part of the bigger picture in the World of Waterfowl Science.
