Here's how the legislature authorized the DCNR to close seasons:

(7) To close the season of any species of game in any county or area when, upon a survey by the department, it is found necessary to the conservation and perpetuation of such species and to reopen such closed season when it is deemed advisable.


Was it necessary for you to quit hunting early for the conservation and perpetuation of the species? I don't think so.

Somebody's idea of "herd health" was the reason you could not hunt.


I don't either,but do you think the bag limits on squirrels and coons are necessary for the conservation and perpetuation of the species?

Also I did not stop hunting I just was not the one with the gun.
