billrquimby Report post Posted November 23, 2016 "Sustainability is as good a reason as any. We all get a 34B lope tag, a sheep tag and a goulds tag as well then right? There won't be anything left to hunt." The word sustainability implies a resource could become extinct. We have relatively few pronghorn, bighorn sheep and Gould's turkey, so limiting hunter numbers is needed until their numbers increase. Our deer are widespread and numerous, and would not be threatened with extirpation by increasing permits by 5% or even 10% in many units. History shows the worst that might happen is hunter success would drop slightly. -- Bill Quimby Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
