Targeted hunt cited for lower deer kill in Wisconsin

Southern Wisconsin reports show a 22 percent drop in deer registered during the nine day gun season from 1986 totals with only Lafayette and Rock counties up. Weather and reduced hunting pressure are cited by DNR wardens and wildlife manager as key factors alongside policy changes increasing hunter choices and antlerless permits to curb crop damage and herd size.
