I got the email a short while ago. I was surprised to see majority support mandatory reporting. Was glad to see majority support smartphone reporting. That would aide in compliance. Smartphone??? What the $%^^ is a smartphone? I got a house phone and that's all. I am not kidding, I only have a house phone. I can be contacted on it sometimes or through the Postal Service.

I agree with it as well, but don't see how it is enforceable given our current resources. My problem with the smartphone app is what happens if you don't have service to report? Are you allowed to move the animal to report it, or do you have to travel to service, report, then move. How do you enforce it? Pros and cons with all the methods. They could do it with an app that captures the time and location of the kill then waits until service is available and uploads it.
I love my country, but don't trust my government.

According to earspltnloudnbmr, who failed to answer questions about how he knows this is a finality or respond again on this thread about this survey he said this: Originally Posted By: earspltnloudnbmr You will have 48 hours to record your kill. You can do it online or by phone. I think there is also a mail in option. There is no cost associated with the mandatory check-in. Hopefully this survey is not a CYA so someone can say "Well, sure, we got public input" but the decision already is or has been made. Was surprised to see the number of respondents who say they didn't hunt turkeys.

62% think deer numbers are limited and 63% think that turkey numbers are limited. There seems to be some discrepancies in the perceived reasons as to the causes, though. However, about the only thing that the State can do through Regulation is to reduce the harvest of antlerless deer and turkey gobblers. Then, all the biologists can work on the reasons why.

Gonna be mighty hard for some of you fellers to get the bag limits reduced or seasons shortened after looking at numbers 11 and 12. Tell the truth, how many surveys did you send in to skew those numbers. Surprising data there for sure.
Ya'll are just overthinking it now

The Questions were loaded questions that cause a skewed response. #8 Do you support mandatory harvest reporting of deer to provide information to better manage the deer population? Of course more people are in favor of "better manage". The Question should have been rephrased "Do you support mandatory harvest reporting of deer?" It doesn't matter anyway. I bet the decision has already been made.

Of course more people are in favor of "better manage". The Question should have been rephrased "Do you support mandatory harvest reporting of deer?" It doesn't matter anyway. I bet the decision has already been made. If they make decisions based on some survey they are not doing their job, period! The questions should have been something like "How should the DCNR obtain deer harvest information? a. voluntary reporting to get a statistical sample b. Mandatory reporting with a fine for not reporting to get a statistical sample c. Use voluntary harvest information from landowners, leaseholders, etc to get a statistical sample d. Make regulatory changes from questionable survey results and squeaky wheels while threatening the people that actually pay their paycheck. Obviously, dead deer will tell them how many are still alive and in all age structures, distribution, how many die from predation, car deer accident, die of old age, poached, full of corn, were killed hunting over bait (err, supplemental feeding) across the State. Sounds like a survey and mandatory reporting is the way to go!!
