Deer in Bismarck (2012)


This April 19, 2012, photo shows deer in Bismarck, N.D. North Dakota's Game and Fish Department is making just 65,300 deer licenses available for the 2012 season, a drop of more than 40 percent from last year and the fewest licenses in nearly a quarter century. The reduction in licenses is in response to a smaller deer population throughout the state caused by three straight harsh winters, from 2008 to 2010, Game and Fish wildlife chief Randy Kreil said Monday, May 7, 2012.
