Message: <blockquote data-quote="wct12" data-source="post: 366422" data-attributes="member: 8117">If the game and fish department actually talked with landowners in the area where moose presence is high, there would be a pretty large difference between what their idea of land owner tolerance and what actual land owner tolerance.. I just so happen to live in one of those areas and have helped multiple 50+" bulls be shot, and I guarantee you landowner talk isn't much in favor of the population (it's on the decline and I'm guessing tag numbers will reflect that this year.. but the people that live here every day and interact don't know anything about the current population because they didn't take a class on it in college). And access for moose wasn't that hard to obtain, but the last couple years the trend has been different due to a number of reasons. The same can be said for deer management. I'll see if I can get the link to post tomorrow from my labtop or the year by year deer tags given out. For multiple years it was almost double what is a sustainable population and I believe an Ehd out break in late 200s with a few harsh winters drove that population down.. the only one with the ability to manage those deer numbers is the game and fish department.. no one has any input on tag numbers besides them.. and they showed a multi year fail at being to do that, and now the population is below what they say as sustainable but with a trend back up without the habitat to support it anymore. They used to give away multiple tags per year to people to try and get it in check.. If you watched testimony it's pretty easy to see and was pointed out early the exact time in Charlie's testimony on the prion percolating.. the CWD genetic resistance is tiptoed around in that same testimony.  as far as the Jeb Williams talking around the real answer.. that was in questions asked to him by senate members (believe it was magrum that asked it, it's been a couple days since I've rewatched all the testimony's).</blockquote>
