Now this adds a whole new meaning to the "Grassy Knoll" now doesn't it.:fighting0007:
In the 1800s European settlers arrived, bringing with them European earthworm species in potted plants. European earthworms have been part of the habitats surrounding human habitation ever since.. |

So, if the herd is being managed based on forest health in those WMUs , why isn't the PGC trying to reduce the herd?
BTW, they won't know if they needed to fence those cuts for 3 or 4 years!! They know based on the browse impact and pellet count studies in each district. |
That simply is not true. the DCNR totally discounted the pellet count results in their Browse Study. Furthermore, they cannot assess the browsing impact on a particular cut until after the cut is made. As you so often stated,deer densities vary across any WMU and deer will concentrate in areas with suitable browse.
If regeneration is improving in 2G and 2F ,why isn't that improvement reflected in the PGC's forest health data? |

The improvement has been substantial everywhere I've been lately in 2F from my few acres to the vast ANF and I suspect this is the case where DougE and others have spent time. When was the last time you walked the woods in 2F or 2G? |
Improvement would be seen in the field long before the data was actually gathered, analyzed and compiled so that it could be seen on a computer screen. |

Only a fool would make a comment like that. The PGC collects the data from the field and posts it in the AWRs. regeneration in 2F actually decreased as the herd was reduced ,instead of increasing as expected. Can you explain why that happened?
Do you ever think before you post? Only a fool would fail to recognize that data on a report is always at LEAST a season behind what can be seen out there in the field. Of course, If I or a few others here posted that the sun will rise in the east tomorrow, you'd find some way to argue it. Did you miss the question? When was the last time you walked the woods in 2F or 2G? |

Since the PGC doesn't manage the herd in 2F or 2G based on the personnel observations of hunters, it doesn't matter one bit when the last time was that I took a walk in those WMUs. |
