Hi All,

Welcome to 2007 Hunting Season Forecasts

New York is looking forward to another safe and successful deer hunting season in 2007. Deer survival through winter was good in most areas and the spring fawning season appears to have been very productive. Deer numbers should be higher in most Wildlife Management Units (WMUs) compared to last fall. Hunters throughout much of the state saw a slight increase in deer harvest in 2006, and DEC expects further increases in 2007.

The 2006 harvest of almost 96,600 bucks was an encouraging 8% increase over the 89,200 bucks taken in 2005, suggesting that deer populations in many portions of the State are growing slowly and recent management actions are working. The 2006 antlerless take remained stable from 2005, despite a nominal increase in Deer Management Permits (DMPs) in 2006. DMPs are valid only for the taking of antlerless deer and serve as the cornerstone for statewide deer management efforts. DMP allocations were reduced in much of New York in 2004 and 2005 in an effort to slow and stop population decline in specific areas of the state and set the stage for the population growth we are now experiencing.

Hi Joelee Red deer are our largest and the only native species to Ireland. They are believed to have had a continuous presence in Ireland since the end of the last Ice Age (c. 10,000 BC). At this time they roamed freely through out Ireland, however as a result of deforestation, over hunting and the Great Famine (1845 - 1847) many populations became extinct. By the middle of the 19th century the last home of the Red deer was in the woodlands and mountains around Killarney, where their preservation was due to the strict protection of the two large estates of

Herberts of Muckross and the Brownes, Earl of Kenmare. It is known that at the turn of the century there were in excess of 1500 Red deer in Killarney. This declined between 1900 and 1960 to as few as 60. As a result of rigorous protection and management they have increased to 690 in the early 1990's within the National Park.

Red deer are a protected game species and may only be hunted with a licence from the National Parks and Wild Life Service. Red stags may be hunted from the 1st of September until the 28th of February and Hinds may be hunted from the Ist of November to the end of January (February 28th in Wicklow). Hunting of Red deer is strictly prohibited in Kerry.
