Actually Pats, I think we're kinda both. For now that is. We are the tools that provide management but right now we pay the bills too. If we refuse to pay the bills and at the same time resist helping manage the deer properly we could well find ourselves on the outside looking in. Starving the PGC into taking general funds or being absorbed into DCNR will just give the naysayers more of what they already don't like. I really wish they could see past the fact that they have to work a little harder to see a deer.
