The PGC DMP is actually a timber management plan and has little to do with scientific deer management since the plan is not based on the true carrying capacity of the habitat. Instead it is based on the regeneration of commercially valuable timber that exists in our current forests.
And why should we not manage for the forest to regenerate with the same timber species that are there now?
