[QUOTE="wjschmaltz, post: 359585, member: 6150"] The inner hippie/environmental part of me feels like it takes a lot of gall to put a ranch somewhere elk/deer/whatever live and then complain about the elk/deer/whatever eating you out of home. Depredation tags should not be awarded until the landowner has shown that they have made an honest attempt at cutting down their wildlife numbers and conflict. That should include providing hunting opportunity to the public and taking advantage of the hay yards offered by the state. I've had these conversations at length with uncles that before the last couple of years have housed hundreds of deer in their hay yards all winter. It's real easy to find people (especially kids!) to come and knock down an easy doe on the land owner's terms. Several people on here and other social media are looking for cow moose/elk every season in ND. In ND, is the "once in a lifetime" only applicable if the tag is filled? I feel like it's once in a lifetime regardless of if it's filled or not but I'm not sure on this and too lazy to look. My opinion is if the tag goes unfilled, the hunter should be able to enter the draw again. I don't like the fact that people feel the pressure to just fill a tag because they can no longer hold the tag. I feel like that's a poor practice. Other states have the system I've described in place where they're only kicked out in the future if the tag is filled. [/QUOTE]
