Default Georgia DNR to meet today...

The Georgia DNR is meeting today in Athens to discuss to possible increase of bag limits and extended hunting season for Whitetail Deer. The whitetail population is apparently not dimenishing at all as of the end of the season, and the pop. is still too high. Approx 30 deer per acre in Georgia. Thats over 1.3 millon deer. Does anybody else from Georgia know about the assembly? I would go if I was'nt working. The hunters are being petitioned and asked to speak on the matters.
The Georgia White Tail deer season should definatly be extended. Its too short anyway.

You may want to recheck your statistics. I doubt that 30 deer per acre is an accurate figure.

He probably meant 30 per sq mile.

I know in some states hunters are required to shoot a doe before they can get a buck tag. I would support this if the DNR would consider it. I think it would reduce the number of young bucks killed as well as helping to reduce the population.
