The EHD outbreak occurred in late August/early Sept. of 2007. By that time the season limits had already been set. I also may be wrong when they added a doe to the mix. It might have been 2 year ago (2006) instead of last year. I don't remember for sure. The EHD was also hit and miss. It devastated some areas while others weren't even affected. Fortunately I was in an area that didn't have any problems.

They did keep the doe in the mix for this year, however. So the population must not have declined too severly. We did have a mild outbreak of EHD this year as well, but nothing like 2007.
