Nick87 replied to the thread Only took 23 years.When it first started it was only a handful like 6 to 8 counties iirc. It was a lot for a small area when you look at deer density...

I’m not sure anyone has the answer to that. Based on anecdotal reports and population statistics, it appears each population can have...

Yes, but even if we’re talking 250,000-300,000 deer in Northern IL, ~1000 deer culled a year over almost 20 years is still not enough to...

Nick87 replied to the thread Only took 23 years.We have.

I agree with this decision by Illinois. As I’ve stated before on this forum, Culling/population reduction has a shelf life when it comes...
