Latest Greatest Muledeer Management Plan

[packhuntr]

Anyone in the know out there regarding Jim Allen and crew's new muledeer management plan, via the last "advisory"...?

My guess would be issue more tags and keep the slaughter alive and well in the hands of Albertan's.

They should just do it the same as sask .res hunters only no outfitters seems to be working good over there .

Some seem to think this, but the reality of it is Sask has the same population now that Alberta had in the early 70's..

We have Saskatchewan and its game farming industry to thank for CWD and the resulting culls etc. which Alberta has been conducting for years. Without the disease and the resultant culls the concerns about declining mule deer numbers wouldn't exist.

I hunted saskatchewan for white tail the last two years.... after going through their draw system, buying tags , and picking them up at their offices, I am going to have to differ from you by saying we are way ahead of them in so many ways! They were about the most frusterating place I have ever had to deal with in getting tags, they just last year incorperated a system similar to our WIN system and have years to go before it even comes close to what we have....

Just my observations

But this is Alberta, so cancelling the resident tags, and allowing APOS to keep all of their allocations is more likely.

Their only concern is to manage the access to wildlife and the tax revenue from it, not manage the asset.....

Could sask seem so much better due to the lower populations? Or that maybe people don't move to sask with hunting as a resident there main or somewhat of a factor for moving?

Imagine how mad most of you guys would be if we had a lottery draw like sask (I think) and the Newfie in the lunch trailer is going on about how lucky he is to draw a mule deer tag a few months after he moved to alberta because he didn't need to build priority for the lottery.

No one will ever be happy

Quit hunting zones that have low deer numbers

How is that outfitters in these zone still kill great deer

I get that the deer herds are not what they used to be but it doesn't rest solely on srd.

I'm sorry just my thoughts
