You've said you want MSY management. Thats just plain greed. You have no consideration for the landowners or people who make their livng from that land.
That simply is not true. I specifically stated landowners should have unlimited DMAP tags if they are suffering from deer damage, and they already had the option of killing deer for crop damage or getting reed tag permits.
Do you really want the statewide herd managed based on the desires of the non-hunting stakeholders? How many fatalities from deer collisions are acceptable? How much property damage from deer collisions is acceptable? If the herd is reduced to 5 DPSM on land open to hunting,there will still be a significant number of roadkills in areas that aren't open to hunting,so how much should we reduce the herd to avoid radkills?? If a truck farmer is suffering crop damage ,should the herd on adjoining properties be reduced until there is zero crop damage? If a landowner timbers 10 acres and the deer prevent regeneration,should the herd be reduced within a mile radius of those 10 acres to insure regeneration?
