"What did you think reduce the deer herd and next year everything is perfect?"
The north has been reduced lower than anywhere and the reduction occurred earlier than most other areas. Its been a helluva lot longer than "last year" and the habitat according to pgc is still poor. It doesnt add up. Since the reduction herd health indicators statewide have also declined. We were told we would see results soon when this program began, and changes would be made as necessary. We see results and they werent as predicted. No "more and bigger bucks", and no improved breeding timing according to pgc, and most of all DECLINE in reproductive rates... Toss in a huge number of pizzed hunters..... Sorry bud, but to anyone not concerned strictly with more eco-extremist agendas that include more trilium and hobblebush....that = MISERABLY failed program.
