News » Deer hunters' group pleased with DNR decision
Mar. 11, 2010
Members of a wildlife group say the DNR appears to be listening to their concerns about the deer herd.
The agency announced this week that it's raising its population goals in nearly a third of the state's deer management zones. Whitetail's Unlimited spokesman Jaime Merckx says hunters have been complaining for years that the deer herd is too small.
Meckx says two hard winters and increasing numbers of deer being killed by predators also hurt the deer herd. He says a mild winter this year should help their numbers bounce back. |
