There you go again,acting like deer hunting is an entitlement.I got news for you.Never in the history of Pa has there been 100% success and never 800000 hunters been successful
Wrong again. nothing i posted indicated I thought deer hunting was an entitlement and the fact that 800K hunters were never successful is not news to me. But the fact remains that when we were harvesting 200K buck /year the herd was as healthy and more productive than it is now that we are harvesting 40% less buck/yr.
The fact still remains that the herd was reduced for the benefit of DCNR and the timber industry and and it had nothing to do with herd health, the breeding ecology or better hunting.
