I talk to George Lindquist of U.P. Whitetails of Marquette County about our declining deer herd in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. The 2023 deer harvest was one of, if not the, lowest deer harvest on record with less than 17,000 deer (12,600) bucks reported harvested. What does that say about our deer herd that has been on the decline for years and what’s causing the decline? George has been a part of multiple sportsman’s groups over the years, advocating for hunters and proper wildlife and habitat management, and is an avid hunter himself. We also get into other topics, like the need for more people to join more sportsman's and conservation groups, moose, wolves and more. This is my first interview about the 2023 U.P. deer harvest and deer population and will have a few more posted over the next couple of weeks.
