Wildlife Management Remains Hot Topic In Pennsylvania





Since being hired in 2004, a team of biologists working under the Pennsylvania Game Commission’s new Private Landowners Assistance Program have aided more than 220 landowners in developing habitat-management plans for more than 33,000 acres of prime private property. The assistance has helped increase the land’s value and keep at bay the state’s ongoing decline in habitat quality and loss of wildlife habitat on private lands. Disgruntled hunters, under the banner of Unified Sportsmen of Pennsylvania, have shown dissatisfaction with other facets of the state’s deer management policies, however, by suing the state. They claim the whitetail population is intentionally being reduced to increase timber sales by improving the longevity of forests and also contend that current hunting regulations might lead to the irreparable decimation of the state’s deer herd.
