Yes
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Great chukar hunting on east slope. Also, lots of quail. As for deer, there are many hidden permanent blinds. I doubt a deer could show-up during hunting hours and survive.
Gathering is easy. Hunting is a challenge.

Don’t bother....a hunter every hundred yards- even though it’s wide open country with little cover. The deer do not move into the area until the winter snow comes. More sheep than deer.

I have seen bucks and does on the butte in the past. Always funny when they are next to the tower and not a human in site, except this chukar hunter.
