    What region you residing in? I counted 50-70, about a mix of half WT, when hiking around about a week ago...saw about 30-50 muleys the week before that (hard to know if you're counting twice on some)...region 8....

    The deer population is dropping by one or two a day east of Kamloops from the amount of red smears on the highway lately.

    Don't know the area, that's why I was asking with a ? mark....but it's got to be feasible in the odd location one would think....expensive yes, but it won't hurt to at least ask...
