Pittman–Robertson Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Act of 1937 — the law that rebuilt America's wildlife, restored whitetail deer from near extinction, and created the modern system of game management we rely on today.</p> <p data-start="1072" data-end="1110">In this revived evergreen episode, we:</p> <ul data-start="1111" data-end="1327"> <li data-start="1111" data-end="1150"> <p
