    Deer, Unit 23

    Probably a few more Whitetail in area, elk numbers are good. Mule deer probably holding their own? They stop letting kids have either sex mule deer during general hunt if I remember correctly. Lot of Bears in unit do a spring bear hunt to get a feel for it!

    Idaho HB 587

    Bill just a few lines so F&G implementing could be anything! Poop show of last couple years needs to go, allowing residents like me to buy second deer and elk tags price locked after the leftover outfitter tags come up in August every year needs to go those nonresident tags should go to...

    How bad does it have to get

    Seems like December 1st date gets more nonresident committed than a May/June draw. Draw might lead to more leftover tags. I personally picked up a second elk tag mid season in October. No need for resident draw yet! Management strategy is not in line with some of these suggestions.

    It’s time for a real discussion

    Well I hike the Boise foothills a lot and range conditions are a factor. cheat grass and Skelton weed dominate a lot of areas that used to be sagebrush. This created the burn and burn again cycle that seems to have no end in sight. State and federal agencies don’t have the resources and $$ to...

    Kiling off Idahos deer!

    Hopefully they can speed up the testing turnaround. It was a full month in December when we got results last fall. I had Colorado deer tested in 2005, 3 days to get results. deer and elk up salmon river are pretty spread out in that big country.

    Kiling off Idahos deer!

    The gray shaded areas aren’t full of CWD!, the point I was making is there’s no way nose to nose contacted spread from Montana to Slate Creek. I agree there is so much that is unknown about how this spreads. Wisconsin kills more deer with cars than most western states do with guns. Eradicate in...

    Kiling off Idahos deer!

    CWD is on WY and MT boarder, how does it show up in slate cr? Is there a swath of cwd across the the gospel hump, selway, and frank church? If it wasn’t a game farm, was it an infected carcass, a ranch illegally bring in a deer to add genetics to their property? I don’t see the natural...

    Kiling off Idahos deer!

    read the paper you quoted “emerging prion disease drives host selection in a wildlife population “ not Qualified to quote any of those findings either way! “Bayesian modeling “ if one is four time more likely to contract something, is the other 4x less likely? When something comes out I pay...

    Fingers Crossed for the Deer

    I see a lot of valley county plates down there! They’re hauling wood back up the mountain. They love that red fir in McCall. That fire last summer probably burned some tamarack on there side of the mountain so, might not have as much competition this spring

    Any idea how much snow and at what level snow line is by Ola? Hopefully I can get in for firewood next month

    Fingers Crossed for the Deer

    Looks like there’s some pretty big gaps, SE &SW corners are going to have winter kill panhandle still under on snow depth. Still time left but it doesn’t look like statewide mortality like 2017

    Kodiak goat hunt

    Regulatory year instead of calendar year. So, I could go back in fall but then I wouldn’t be eligible in spring if I harvested, correct? You couldn’t shoot 4 in back to back years? I’m pretty savvy on western regs, Alaska has a lot things no one else has!
