California is probably one of the worst states when it comes to managing the wild game herds. It’s where I live, so I obviously hunt it the most.
Predators
Can’t hunt mountain lions. Can’t use dogs for bears anymore. And deer populations seem to be declining more as years go on. A friend of mine talked to a forestry biologist and they had trail camera pictures of 61 different mountain lions in one small area that I used to hunt. Idk how they know that they’re different cats but still seems excessive. I’ve even heard a rumor that California wants to reintroduce wolves. Why not issue tags for mountain lions with a quota. Once quota is met, season closes. I myself have seen 4 throughout the years
Deer season:
I feel maybe California should try a longer archery season and shorter rifle season but rifle season for 2-3 weeks at the end of October and maybe a week into November with a 3 point or better for rifle season. Fork or better for archery. Maybe significantly reduce tag quota for rifle.
Im no genius when it comes to this type of thing, everyone feel free to put in the 2 cents
I live here too and see the corruption within the state's Fish & Game Dept (a division of the Humane Society). I hunt neighboring states mostly...too many reasons to avoid the People's Republik of Mexifornia.
