RE: Gary Alt (PA Hunters)
apparently it does....
Dr. Alt in recent interviews since his retirement says he quit because he was not MORE succesfull at herd reductions. He wants more does taken, and is frustrated with hunters like you who do not want to get pa down to 12dpsm by shooting MORE does than we do today.
Feel free to search for the article from Pa's TimesLeader newspaper.
Hunters still do not get it. Herd reductions are the only aspect of the deer plan Dr. Alt planned on delivering.........the rest was fluff.
He also said, that he wants the PGC funded by nonsportsmans dollars ( in addiition to hunters) so that hunters cannot have a say in the wildlife managment of the state.
This, after a commission that gave him everything he asked for in 6 years.
He says in the article that he was ineffective in pa wildlife management, and that is why he quit. At herd reductions he was effective, at making hunters second class citizens he was sucessfull, at dividing hunters he was sucessfull....
The only thing he was NOT sucessfull at was delivering those "more and bigger bucks" he promised.....
