News » DNR wants to boost deer numbers in more areas
Mar. 10, 2010
Plenty of hunters were upset after last year's gun deer season, and now, the DNR is raising population goals in nearly a third of the state's deer management zones.
The latest plan calls for increases in 43 zones. The agency originally wanted to boost the population in only 13 of the 131 zones, but the assembly fish and wildlife committee shot down that idea.
DNR officials believe the changes will increase the state's deer population by about 92,000 before the fall hunt. |
