Fox News
Pennsylvania just joined the growing list of states that can brag about their recent hunting accomplishments.
According to a press release from the commission, the 2020-21 harvest of 435,180 deer topped the previous year’s harvest of 389,431. Included in that number were an estimated 174,780 bucks, which set a new state record. The Game Commission’s Deer and Elk Section supervisor David Stainbrook said, "About a quarter of the state’s deer hunters took a buck in the 2020-21 deer seasons. It’s a trend that hunters have maintained over the past three license years. The fact that we can maintain such high success rates on bucks year after year demonstrates the sustainability of the deer population in Pennsylvania."More Related News
