Why would mohr oppose this anyway?He owns a commercial, tame animal shooting preserve on an island in the Susquehanna.When it comes to his finacial gain,he certainly doesn't seem to have a problem killing tame,human imprinted animals.Maybe he figured the PGC should donate those fawns to him so he can let them go on his island
Do human imprinted fawns pose a serious threat to humans or other deer?

I have no plans on hunting doe here in my own home state(WV) so I know I'll not be going to other states to hunt doe. what bothers me is the attitude that humans who live across an imaginary boundry line drawn on a map, and whos' dollars are of equal value as those whos' states the deer are in, have not the same priveledge to hunt those deer. it's just wrong in so many ways, to say that non-resident hunters aren't allowed to hunt anywhere that residents are allowed to hunt. I used to feel bad towards Pa/Md/Ohio hunters who came across that imaginary line and hunted our deer without mercy on the herd. if they bought the licenses, then they took to the hills and hunted.now, I see it from a un-selfish position, they are Americans who have the same right to priveledges offered to residents... and they should.
Sad to say that after 40+ years of hunting, certain attitudes are still prevelent in this sport... and selfish jealousy about hunting areas/ game limits/ or even to have the priveledge offered at all, is a horrible thing to have.you'll find that attitude across every state line you cross, and it's wrong. think about it... we can salute the same flag, honor the same Independence Day, even wear the same uniforms in foreign countries, but we don't want "them" hunting over here....Sorry for the rant, but it's about time the sport and heritege(sp) of hunting gets past all that trivial foolishness... we're ALL Americans in pursuit of North American wildlife....

Rem1100 some valid points. Unfortunately our management agency, the Pa greed commission isnt like other management agencies around the nation to say the least. We have ecoextremists on our hands here. We have alot of other bigger issues than wether or not there are enough tags in one or two units of the state to permit nonresident hunting within those areas. Not being uncaring or dismissing your statement... But such is the sad state of affairs in Pennsylvania currently. And its gonna get worse with this type thing going on in more and more wmus as the herd is further decreased.
