Iccharetboy,

I am not sure what point you are validating about the ratio's. Its a small percentage were talking about. Can we agree the current ratio is somewhat undesirable?

On the statistical question, you and Phade are both wrong, you may agree with Phade, butyou are both wrong. If the sample of 100 deer is collected and 52 are one sex and 48 are the other sexwith a 3% error rate that PHADE suggested, that is a statistical dead heat within the prescribed error margin of 3%. I will not argue the point. This concept is called themagnitude of relations between variables. Once again, ask any graduate student and I assure you that I am correct

The question is do Ithink we shouldhave antler restrictions?Theanswer is yes, I do.
