    Targeted Removal

    I havent nope! I will have to go give them a read, I've actually not been on here in quite awhile until i heard i got mentioned in a conversation. Private deer farms are investing tons of money into genetic research, and their data/studies (contain the same key trigger words) are just turned a...

    Targeted Removal

    or.. we say that there is other things that come into play besides a bait pile (what the game and fish is targeting currently). you cant tell me that 15 deer that are going to meet up for 5 months out of the same year coming to a bait pile is going to be that much worse than 15 deer coming to a...

    Targeted Removal

    There isn't dollars allocated to this federally because right now they care more about testing and results. There is millions of dollars being spent towards CWD research currently.. but if they used dollars for something like this instead of billboards, it would probably sit better with some people.

    Targeted Removal

    The other portion of that is the deer still also self forage so they wont have to be fed the complete dietary requirements (think maybe half of that dollar amount.. you can find feed sources to supplement that have high quality nutrition besides straight alfalfa. For example in a winter where...

    Targeted Removal

    I've asked Dr Bahnson the question on CWD resistance genes in the past before and they aren't even interested in testing for stuff like this in the wild.. in units like 3f2 where they are pushing a culling through massive tag allotments, on the deer that are turned in and tested negative why...

    Targeted Removal

    The game and fish funds food plots and intercept feeding programs which both still congregate deer. Using 2-3 food sources (straight corn excluded or minimal due to acidosis). If the game and fish came out and said "we're going to fund part of this but want help, the sportsmen that are already...

    Targeted Removal

    I've always said that when you can find that and show it to me without a possibly, a maybe or a could be.. I will change my stance on it. But for now there has been a line drawn on possibilities and maybes and that's where the round and round comes from.

    Targeted Removal

    "Of course nutrition is important. This looks like you are suggesting that we inoculate and feed wild animals. We all know habitat consists of food water and shelter. A deer’s diet is 50-60% browsing woody plants. Supplemental feed would not only be insanely expensive for the state but also...

    Targeted Removal

    One of my big topics of discussion and something i have a big gripe is something i did make a Facebook post about... After last nights advisory board meeting, lets actually talk about "Protecting the Herd".. The number 1 detriment to the deer herd in North Dakota is harsh winters and the...

    Targeted Removal

    Man… I haven’t posted on here (don’t think I’ve even been on here) in a few months and I still get a shout out... If you look at FB policies they are a grass rooted org and have actually supported quite a few sportsmens/right to hunt bills in the state (including the right to hunt amendment in...

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    In our unit from years 21 to 22 bull tags dropped over 50%, and cow tags dropped by 20. Was thinking of the number of moose I helped people harvest last year and it was 8% of all moose tags given in our unit. Kind of wild to think about even you stop and look at license numbers given out.

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    Not sure if the count is public yet.. just looking at the number tags from year to year given out. I have heard from a pretty good source that they are down for certain in our specific unit though.

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    Just noticed this.. but I get it's not a place to change regulations. It's supposed to be a place of open input between landowners/sportsmen and the game and fish department. A couple months ago on here or hunt talk I said that moose populations are down (this is due to putting more miles on a...

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    North Dakota game and fish doesn't even survey well enough on archery harvest surveys so I doubt that Info is available. I hunt more then the average Joe.. by quite a bit. And it's almost all done on private land we don't own (waterfowl hunting). But I also hunt other states where everything...

    House Bill 1151- Prohibiting baiting bans

    The correlation is the fact that people (in this case sportsmen, some who own land and have allowed recreation in the past, are fed up with the game and fish not being open to compromise until it passed the house with 80% and was going to pass the senate committee 6-0. People on the western half...
