Here are the prososed elk regulations for unit 34. One regulation proposes in increase in 450 rifle elk tags while the next proposal states they need to reduce the amount of tags due to the sustainable harvest being exceeded. I know there is a lot of pressure on the NMDGF to allow more elk tags in this unit because of the private land owners but it seems there regulations are contradicting each other.........
GMU 34: Increase rifle permits in the 2 general rifle hunts, from 950 to 1200 permits and from 1000 to 1200 permits
and add a Youth-Only hunt with 50 Forked-Antlered Deer permits.
Subsequently, sustainable harvest has been exceeded.
The SE area suggests a reduction in the youth only ES
licenses from 150 to 100 in order to reduce over-harvest
during the rut.
