Just looking at the documents again. This I think is in both of the last 2 documents.

These are the actual decrease in resident tags for each zone.

WMU 300

Antlerled Elk 12
Antlerless Elk 130
Antlered Moose 1
Antlered Mule deer 4 (Quota goes up 2 HFH gets 6)
Antlerless Mule deer 8

Decrease in hunting opportunities 155

WMU 108

Antlered Elk Gain 8
Antlerless Elk 65
Antlered Mule Deer 19
Antlerless Mule Deer 162
Antelope 3

Decrease in hunting opportunities 241

Total opportunities lost 396.

How does this increase hunting opportunities? Propogate this over the entire province it is brutal.

The one that bothers me the most is Antlerless Mule deer. This is probably the number one animal for a young hunter. I know my first hunting experience was a mule doe. My son's also was the same. I would venture to guess that quite a few others have had this same experience. They are taking this away and expecting the hunter numbers to increase. This does not make sense to me.
