That is a very good article.  It will be interesting to see whether or not the DNR adjusts anterless permit numbers for the next few years.

Yeah,good atricle....I guess we should also take into account the other animals that have had it rough this winter...

So far this spring on our property we have had an opossum (in the chicken coop) and a fox that ran quite well across the yard.  We have had visits at times by skunks as well, judging by the smell and the squirrels were out last week when it was warm but I have not seen them again since it has cooled off again.
