(154,021 posts)since deer is a fall thing, and people get licences for just a certain number of bucks... there is a limit, (even if we do have a population issue)
Fishing is a lot more open. Things like squirrel are considered nuisance.
I suspect, and no I don't have the numbers, but one that might be an interesting article to research... that it truly goes into economic strata and traditions. I suspect native peoples do it a lot more than our fall hunting season regulars, like even Paul Ryan. The Innuit are almost 100% hunter gatherers still, for example and have special permits to hunt things like sea wolves. Others, I suspect a lot less.
But you know what? I might try to find out if and when to do this story in my own back yard. Would be interesting.
Thanks
