    Tag Increase Another Thought

    LAST EDITED ON Apr-06-16 AT 11:42AM (MST)[p]It's about overall population increase and decline.It's exponential, because does will have 50% or so doe fawns, which multiplies when you consider multiple years of offspring compounded. Harsh winter basically reduces your carrying capacity. So if...

    Deer Permit Increases in Utah

    Are many people aware that the buck to doe ratio counts are done POST SEASON? Many of Utah deer units are very likely well into 45:100 b/d pre season and I'd wager many are in the 50's. Hell, there're probably a handful that hit 60-70/100 on any given year. Where does the hard on for a big...

    Wildlife Conservation-How should we raise money for wildlife projects?

    No matter how stacked the odds are, one will never be able to score from the bench. Eliminating buck deer tags does nothing for long term population. The ruse is that hunting is necessary to subjugate healthy wildlife populations. I would suggest that the only plausible necessary or positive...

    Wildlife Conservation-How should we raise money for wildlife projects?

    LAST EDITED ON Mar-11-16 AT 10:01PM (MST)[p]I'd like to see an ROI breakdown for the last 15 or so years of conservation tag spending. I suspect in the business world it would be a failure, especially anything to do with wild sheep. How do we as a state quantify succeses and failures of...

    Good job el matador and Wes. Short and sweet. The john Larson non-statement was straight out of the ol' stand-by playbook. You can see Don gunning for a Trump cabinet spot from a mile away. Sec of the interior/director of fish and wildlife Peay should scare the f*ck out of people.

    Are the Utah DWR buck to doe ratios accurate? What is your opinion?

    What are estimated statewide fawn recruitment totals on average? That would probably be close to the attrition that is stated above, validating a fairly stagnant population estimate over the last several years.
