Because Missourians’ acceptance is essential to the success of any deer management plan, final decisions will not be made without public input.
C' mon! How can you possibly manage a herd by taking into account " public input" ? And make t-zone hunts in December instead of right smack dab during the peak of the rut? We can' t leave bow season for just bowhunters! We can' t let THAT happen in Wisconsin!
Horntagger, either the guys in MO have figured out that public relations is just as important as anything when it comes to deer management, or they talk a good game. This is written like it is coming from public servants, as opposed to pompous dictatorial bureaucrats.
Like WDHC said, please send a copy of this to our DNR here!
