The survey results were released today by Ontario Natural Resources Minister Lyn McLeod and Environment Canada Minister Lucien Bouchard at the annual meeting of federal and provincial wildiife ministers in Quebec City. According to the survey, more than 6.8 million Ontarians spent $1.6 billion in 1987 on wildlife- rclated activities. "We will be analyzing the valuable data from the survey to better understand the social and economic demands on the wildlife in our province," McLeod said. "Ontario remains committed to managing our wildlife resources in a sustainable way." The survey was conducted by Statistics Canada and sponsored by the federal and 10 provincial For the survey, close to 80,000 Canadians over the age of 15 were given a questionnaire on their wildlife-related activities during 1987. More than 55,000 people responded, 16,000 of whom were Ontario residents. Most people participated in indirect wildlife activities, includ- ing watching wildlife films, read- ing wildlife books or visiting zoos or natural history museums. Others participated in such activi- ties as photographing and feeding wildlife or contributing to wildlife conservation groups. Hunting, recreational fishing and trapping small mammals were also included in the activities reported in the survey. Major findings for Ontario in the report include: - More than 85 per cent of Ontarians believe that maintain- ing abundant wildlife and protect- ing endangered species is impor- tant. - More than 70 per cent of Ontarians participate in non-con- sumptive wildlife activities around their homes or cottages, including feeding, watching, pho- tographing or studying wildlife.

Membership Chairman - Participants spend nearly $1 billion to watch, photograph, study or feed wildlife around their homes or on trips or outings. - Approximately six per cent of Ontarians hunt wildlife, and hunters spend $314 million. Nearly all resident hunters also engage in other wildlife activities, contributing a similar amount of money to the provincial economy. - Nearly 28 per cent of Ontario residents spend an average of 17 days recreational fishing. 'Approximately 'one per cent of Ontarians trap small mammals, mainly for food or fur, income and property protection. The 1987 survey is modelled on a similar survey taken in 1981.
