Setting Time Limits for Hunting

Here is a year old article that I’m not sure was talked about on here. The topic however has come up on other hunting forums. The study found that hunting quotas limiting the number of game that hunters can take based from the previous year; may jeopardize wildlife populations. They recommend that wildlife managers rethink policies for sustainable utilization by setting limits on the number of days allowed for hunting rather than the number of game.

This goes back to everyone that has talked about year-round hunting and pressure here in Oregon and what that may be doing to our game herds. Do you think Oregon or other states need to take a look at this and possibly follow it?
