Episode 18 - The Natural Resources Commission (NRC) recently voted on recommended changes for the upcoming 2024 Michigan Deer Season. The NRC rejected all of the U.P. Deer Management Initiative (DMI) team's recommendations. The NRC & DNR created this team (and one in the lower) for the purpose of improving deer management in the state and to hear voices from hunters and those outside the agency and stakeholder groups. This is my full interview with Chad Stewart, Deer Management Specialist of the Michigan DNR Wildlife Division, about the new regulations for 2024, and the Deer Management Initiative's recommendations that were not taken.
You can find previous interviews and shows about the DMI and the 2023 deer harvest on this RU-vid channel.
