LANSING, Mich. — COVID-19 doesn't stop for hunting season, the Department of Natural Resources says.
Officials reminded Michiganders to keep observing safety protocols like social distancing as firearm season gets underway.
Got a link for the actual study?
Do masks protect you from CWD, (madcow disease)? Do they have a vaccine for that now? I’ve read a lot of MI deer are diseased and not fit to feed to your dog. The state game department doesn’t have anything to say about that, do they?
First put a mask on the deer ....
Don’t forget “car and truck deer hunting season”...
It runs year round....
Lots of states have bow season, firearm (smokeless) season, and some have a muzzleloader season.
Reference to the allowed weapon is pretty common in those states.
They could hire Thomas Binger to show how not to handle a rifle........
How do you get close enough to swab the deers nasel cavity to make sure its COVID free before you kill it?
That’s a damned big army right there.
367,652 deer killed by hunters in MI in 2018
All total I can bag something like 14 deer (only three antlered bucks though). Already have a doe and a 4 point in the freezer. One of my sons bagged his first bear in Virginia's early muzzleloader season last week. “Traditional” opening rifle season in WV next Monday, then up to Pennsylvania for opening day Saturday after Thanksgiving.
As a landowner in WV I don't need any license or tags to hunt my own land, and my $25 Senior license covers me for Buck and Bear everywhere else in WV.
Yet with almost every one hunting in WV there is no way the doe population can be reduced to a proper size and bears always remain a borderline nuisance despite heavy hunting including with dogs in many counties.
“A wiser fella than me once said, ‘Sometimes you eat the b’ar, and sometimes the b’ar eats you’ “.
Only shoot deer that are not wearing a mask.
some states have Bow season before gun season
