All-important deer hunt begins Saturday

One of Wisconsin’s great traditions, the annual deer hunt season that opens this Saturday is critical this year because a huge reduction in the deer herd is needed. Wisconsin has too many deer, but thinning the herd will be easier said than done.
Sadly, the number of hunters is on the decline. And the deer hunt starts later this year meaning the deer have finished mating and are less active, a prospect hunters would rather not think about. The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has also announced there are herd control rules that hunters don’t like.
Here are more details from the Associated Press.
The economic impact of this yearly rite of passage is an incredible $1.5 billion according to the DNR. The state of Wisconsin owes every hunter a huge thank you!
