Default Eastern zone Hunting draw predictions.

Im curious as to what may happen for Mule deer tags over the next 5 years or so in the Eastern zones of Alberta.
I submitted my Mule Deer head for CWD testing from a Non CWD zone. It came back negative but the questionnaire that i did after wards was like a half hour long and my impression was it eluded to a plan to thin the herd.
Through all the social media posts i read plus on A.O it seemed like an increase of positives...

Whats everyone else's predictions..

Mine came back positive two years in row

I was never asked to complete a survey which is surprising as you'd think they'd want my info.

I predict their will be an increase in tag numbers across many of these zones. This topic is directly related to the thread I started regarding Draw Quota ideas, because it will be interesting to see just how much things change as the positive results continue to increase.

Draw numbers will increase across the southern border zones as well. Pruning the numbers

Hopefully they open them right up again, after the last couple easy winters(no snow) the mules herd is getting out of hand again.
