Deer management draft proposal recently released by the DEC.


Recommended Posts

For the DEC to put together a 5 year plan they must of had a lot  of input from many sources.  I am shocked that mandatory reporting was never considered especially when you want to get a handle on the doe situation and allocation of DMP. Also what about coyote predation? Why don't we have open season on coyote, I am sure they account for a lot of dead deer that go unreported. ;)

Reporting is mandatory it's just that most don't do it.. and why would you want to eliminate one species of animal over another?.. What coyotes do is natural for them... they are predators... predation is what they do... it's part of mother natures plan... mother nature doesn't care if we have enough deer for our freezer... any marked decline or increase in deer populations is directly the result of overhunting or under hunting a particular area.

Im pretty sure he means mandatory reporting of all tags, even if they did not get used.
