I remember four years agothey claimed we had 1.6 million deer after they started using a new computer model that added deer in from the SRA's,which were never calculated before.Shortly after that,Dr Rosenberry admitted that he new computer model was flawed and that we did in facthave less deer.Why do you guys keep clinging to that 4 year old figure of 1.6 million deer when they said it was incorrect?
I thinkpeople cling to the number because it is the number that was used to start the deer reduction program. The sad part is when the PGC declared the old model flawed. Theyfailed to stopthe program that was started on bad data and continued with the stay the course attitude.
