The exclosures are an acceptable option if DCNR is willing to spend the money necessary to construct the exclosures. They are a much better option than reducing the statewide herd to a density that DCNR can satisfy SCS without fencing. But, DCNR will not be willing to fence wilderness areas so the tree huggers can see more trilliums ,so they are using DMAP tags instead.
I have an issue with wilderness areas that can never be timbered but there's nothing any of us can do about it.Let me get this strait though.What you're saying is the deer herd should be allowed to grow on state forests to the point where there's never going to be any type of understory?That's just flat out selfish and self centered.
