[quote="anon-8058"][quote="anon,oqs4-0076"]Here are some interesting facts from a recent Farm Bureau Newsletter----- Resident Hunting licenses for 1970  was 171,959 in 1980 125,148 ----      2018 total licenses 28,770!!!   That reduction accounts for the inability to stay ahead of the growing deer population. The cost of the licenses along with the restricted days allowed for hunting have greatly reduced the number of hunters. One additional concern is that throughout New Jersey the regeneration in our forests has been severely hampered by deer browsing the new growth so regeneration of our forests is at a standstill and actually is moving backwards. The deer hunting season should be greatly increased and the Buck and Doe limits need to be increased as well.[/quote]

You must not know much about hunting!you can already hunt sept-feb. also you can harvest unlimited does and 6 bucks total(bow,muzzleloader, and shotgun season). Also there more then 28,770 hunting license bought in the state of NJ more like 75,000 NJ hunters not including out of state licenses. But yes your correct on the land, less land to hunt. And less land for deer thats a bad recipe for unhealthy deer herds.[/quote]
