[QUOTE="KDM, post: 84102, member: 314"] I think you are being sarcastic, but it's really tough to tell as nobody seems to know how many lions there are in ND, but they sure as shootin' don't help INCREASE the deer populations. If you have 1 resident lion, which seems to be what the NDGF wants to see, that lion will take over 7% (52) of the available 700 2015 rifle deer tags allocated to 2E each year. If you add the 50% for fawn losses, assuming half of the deer taken are does, it increases to over 11%. Having 70 more chances to get a rifle tag might interest a few folks instead of having 1 lion in the area. It might surprise people to run the numbers in their units. For me in 2G they gave out 300 tags total in 2015. Having 1 resident lion would take out over 17% and 26% of the available deer tags annually. NOT a pretty picture to think about. [/QUOTE]
