[QUOTE="deleted user, post: 392387, member: 1778"] I wish they’d put more money to habitat as well but A.) It takes landowners giving up acres that could be in production and a shit ton of money, so - B.) Where do they get that money? It was asked at a advisory meeting where CWD awareness funds came from and how they are allocated and it was something like a $75k grant from usda specifically for ads and awareness. So it’s very little money and they can’t use it for anything else anyway. The lions share of conservation dollars are going to habitat, but only on about 2% of the land in the state. As for managing for trophys instead of quantity that is not their job. For non-res mule deer tags, that’s set in stone by century code (number is 15% of the total mule deer gun licenses from the year prior) and the game and fish can’t do anything about that without legislators changing law, and they won’t do that because “it will impact tourism”.
