But for the most part, their populations are WELL below what we have here, even though their habitat, soil and available food is exponentially better than ours.
I can assure that their deer population are not WELL below mine. The only other state I have hunted was in east Texas and they definitley had more deer, but I am also friends with people that hunt in the midwest and they all see way more deer in a hunt than we do in person and on camera.
Look it up. I'll bet you a dollar Alabama has more deer than any of the states I mentioned.
The reason you see a lot of deer in certain areas of those states is because they are not vast woodlands like what we have in most of Alabama. I've seen over 50 deer in one sitting in Kansas, but that was on a narrow strip of woods in between two giant cut milo fields that covered more than 1000 acres.
I hope you do not truely believe the population estimates this state puts out on our deer population....
