RE: Pa Game Comm. Overhaul
1st. the southwest corner of the state is being far too general. You have areas of 2B with very high densities and areas like 2C with MUCH lower densities...With others in between.
2nd the ehd hardest hit areas are still VERY low dd.
3rd. Many areas of the southwest, much of 2Afor example have far fewer than could be and should be had. The habitat never rated poor. Human conflict rated as low, and the 50%+ overwinter reduction by pgcs data,was completely overkill.
More deer than many areas of the state. But should be due to some of the best habitat type. Overkill all the same. And whats worse, continuing the decline despite the claims of "stabilization" for the last 3 years. The allocations and harvest goals that are much higher now, than the supposedlast year of reduction doesnt lie.
Only places Im aware of that havent been over harvested and may be above carry capacity, aside from an isolated pocket here or there, would be the sras.
