You don't agree with me if you think the state is charged with taking care of the "health of the herd". You won't find that in our game and fish laws.
If disease or management practices threaten the conservation, protection and increase of the species, then that's the state's business. Any other aspects of "herd health" is not within the authority that was delegated to the DCNR on privately owned or leased lands. That authority is limited to WMAs by law.
