NH adjusting deer hunt
May 27, 2008
CONCORD, N.H.—New Hampshire hunters won’t have as much time to bag a deer in many parts of the state this fall.
State Fish and Game officials are proposing shorter seasons in 10 of the state’s 18 wildlife management areas. Kent Gustafson, the deer project leader, says the winter hit the deer herds hardest north and east of Concord. He says cutting the season for anterless deer in those areas will mean fewer females will be killed, allowing the herd to rebound.
Gustafson says hunters should be able to get information on the restrictions this summer.
Because of the rough winter, Maine wildlife officials last week reduced the number of permits that will be issued to hunters to shoot antlerless deer during the 2008 season.
