Central Washington Deer Population
C-Money:
My generation may have been the last to see the tail end of "the good old days". Glad my wife & kids were able to tag a few nice mule deer. Lots to still be had. Praying for intelligent predator management.
HillHound:
We have been seeing some good numbers when they were down low this winter. Sucks you have neighbors knowingly let their dogs trespass and treat the local wildlife as a food source. If a dog is out killing chickens, harassing livestock, chasing deer and killing fawns, killing geese, ducks , pheasants, etc off their nests and eating their eggs, oh yeah and on private property I would expect someone to shoot it, even if it was my dog. Irresponsible dog owners piss me off. The dogs always pay for it even though it’s the owners fault. You have lots of cougars out your way and I’m sure the occasional wolf that wanders through. I can’t believe they think their dogs will be back at night if that is the norm

I used to shed hunt that corridor. It would be nothing to scoop 50 in a season there and see 300 to 500 deer in that basin this time of year.

Fitkins, that guy needs to retire. His numbers are from fantasy land.
The only thing right I ever heard him do ,was shut down Wildlife areas thru the winter months. And he should have done that years ago.
String Bender:
The herd is definitely not what it was. Despite the deep snow, the wolves and the cougar I have seen this winter, they look pretty good. Another good thing is I have seen a lot of 2 points.
