A Utah man who has been in a wheelchair for more than 30 years has created a hunt* called "Wheelchairs in the Wild" for people like him who have difficulty getting into the outdoors.
Clint Robinson broke his neck after being thrown off a horse at a race 32 years ago. He has done his best to keep getting into the outdoors to hunt and fish, the Daily Herald in Provo reports.
"We're trying to get new injured* people back out into the field, enjoying the outdoors and wildlife that's out there. We show them that there are other things that they can do. It's not good to sit in the house doing nothing," Robinson said.
The youngest hunter in the hunt was 13-year -old girl Missy Cowley who couldn't walk. Her father loves to hunt but didn't know how to make her comfortable in the wheelchair. Her mother, Cindy Cowley, said it was amazing for her daughter to go hunting. "We always told her when she was little, 'you can do everything you want to do ... ' but we really didn't know how we were going to get her up there to hunt," Cindy Cowley said. Missey Cowley said it was a great experience that also allowed her to meet other people who use wheelchairs. "This is wonderful. In fact, I can do it," Missy said. "And I love being outdoors."
Jerry Schlappi, an officer from Division of Wildlife Resources, who helped with the hunt, said Robinson is a perfect example showing other wheelchair users with disabilities* that they don't have to give up what they love.
