Where Are All The Hunters?

That seems to be what Eric Sharp, outdoor writer for the Detroit Free Press, is trying to find out. In Michigan reports are that there are a lot of deer and hunters had great success. The question being asked is, where are all the hunters?

Mistaking A Cow For A Coyote…….And Dragging It Home?

Stupidity reigns!! Here’s a very difficult test for readers. Take your time. There is no need to rush your answer as doing so could result in a wrong answer and well, similar troubles for one dumb “hunter”. NO CHEATING!! This is serious stuff here.

Below are two pictures. One is a cow and one is a coyote. Pick the one you think is a coyote.

It seems there was a man in Michigan who claims he went out to shoot coyotes, which is illegal to do during deer season in Michigan, and mistook a coyote for a 1,400-pound pregnant cow. That in itself is unbelievable but the moron then tried to drag the cow home.

Michigan Has 1.6 Million Deer

It is estimated by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources that 735,000 deer hunting licenses will be sold resulting in the harvesting of approximately 450,000 deer. During the deer season the state will reap the rewards of an estimated $500 million that will be spent by hunters looking to bag a deer.

The southern and central parts of the state have more deer and in some cases too many and DNR officials are encouraging hunters to take more female deer this year in specified areas in an effort to cut down on numbers. Participation is also being requested for hunters to bring their deer to check stations where biologists will collect valuable information used to create better methods of managing the herd.

An Open Letter to Michigan Sportsmen

The DNR expects the sportsmen to pick up the full tab on their looming budget deficit. Yet, they refuse to license and regulate operations guiding hunters on public land for elk, deer, turkey, bear, and bobcat. Guides don’t even need a hunting license (except bear over hounds, a participation license is needed). In fact, one individual operating as a guide was convicted of hunter harassment, losing hunting privileges for 3 years…and continued guiding hunters because a license is not needed. Read more

Downright Poor Management

The Michigan Department of Natural Resources seems to have a list of laws and regulations it chooses to follow…and operates with blatant disregard for others. One example stems from a ruling by State Attorney General, Mike Cox made February 2, 2006. The ruling was a response to a question asking if it is legal to operate commercial bear baits on CFR land.
