SteveB,
Please forward your reference source for the 60% figure you have mentioned.I am assuming it is a written document.I don'tknow how that information would be compiled,check stations?Our tag reports don't ask for our estimated age of the animal like some states do.
I will tell you flat out I don't believe that percentage,unless it was made up of units that are highly agricultural and even then I don't know how reliable information would be compiled.I am not interested in biologists speculation,I would like to see the study.
