Deer Hunter Survey Summary Statistics, 2000. Hunting Season August 2000-January 2001.

摘要

This is a report of the results of an annual deer hunter mail survey conducted by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, Division of Wildlife Conservation. We have conducted the survey since 1980 to quantify the Sitka blacktail deer harvest in Southeast Alaska. Results of the survey contribute to management decisions and recommendations made by Region I area biologists to the Board of Game. They are also used by the U.S. Forest Service to help determine how its logging and other land management decisions affect deer hunting. The Federal Regional Subsistence Council and Federal Subsistence Board use these survey results when deliberating federal subsistence hunting regulation changes. The statistics summarized in this report rely on a survey mailed to a sample of hunters who obtained deer harvest tickets throughout Southeast Alaska during the 2000 hunting season.
