[QUOTE="Trip McNeely, post: 456872, member: 728"] I definitely disagree with the game and fish on this. To me it’s purely logical the more animals you have going into winter the more likely higher carryover into spring……if you have a herd of 30 and no does are killed all fall then maybe 15-20 make it to spring. If you have 30 deer, kill 10 in the fall then what maybe 8-15 make it to the next spring. Obviously this is anecdotal but you get the point. How long will it take populations to rebound if 20 make it to spring as opposed to 10-15 🤷🏼 honestly Im not sure why they’d be against a moratorium other than selling more tags and trying to wipe out Muleys in areas they want to push the cwd agenda…. If the logic used for deer was because winter mortality would equalize the population if we harvest or not…. Then why do we not shoot hen pheasants? [/QUOTE]
