here in clinton/potter/cameron countys which i hunt for 47 years.
reason for huge decline in deer numbers is too all doe tags issued in last 10 years or so.
then in came all the coyotes, they are killing off the fawns week they are born.less deer/less fawns/even less more do to coyotes.
i seen it, have seen it,have 20 witnessess to it in bass tournament.
then penn statesays bears are doing it also.
then throw in hunters now that dont care if they shoot a fawn,i saw 2 fawns in back of DCNR EMPLOYEES PERSONELTRUCK LAST YEAR, he was happy as h about it.he filled his tags.[:@]
you know what somehunters call a fawn now,FURBALL.
my dad would break gun over your head if he saw you with FAWN.he had GRIT .
lack of deer is NOT do to habitat, i agree with RSB,cant believe i said that ,that HABITAT is bad in wmu2g but reason for CRASH in the deer is not habitat, its ALL DOE/DMAP TAGS THAT WERE ISSUED FOR AT LEAST 10 YEARS.
