Abstract: This paper presents an empirical analysis of voluntary contributions to a state nongame wildlife program. Using data from Minnesota's 1982 income tax check off program Tobit estimates are developed that suggest nongame wildlife contributions are price elastic, characterized as a normal good for income increases up to $67,000, and strongly affected by whether the individual received a tax refund.
