Message: <blockquote data-quote="deleted member" data-source="post: 238985" data-attributes="member: 816"><p>with hunting in the equation, i can see how smaller populations may lead to bigger animals only because it means less tags issued and therefore, less pressure which allows deer to grow older and bigger.  i can't say whether or not it has anything to do with genetic improvement.  just a higher % of older deer on the landscape.  this is only anecdotal.. but, tag numbers have fallen to historic lows in 2E the last 5 years.  less tags means we have folks hunting by themselves or in way smaller parties.  they get up and kill way less deer.  especially, large deer in that scenario.  result:  deer get a chance to grow older and biggererer.</p></blockquote><p></p>
