Funny that comes the week after the front page story about moose doing much better in the Pagami Creek fire area where there was a severe habitat disturbance that burned up a shit load of ticks and created a lot of new cover and browse.
But, so long as the rest of the moose range continues to be neglected habitat-wise deer can continue to be the easy scapegoat.

Yep, saw it. Sad thing is that a lot of deer hunters will believe it

There is one thing that can be said about the MN DNR...they are consistent with the whitetail agenda.

There's clearly an agenda to keep deer numbers as low as possible and it's not even hidden anymore. Sad part is that sd is right. If they just tried a little bit to help the habitat the moose would come back in spades. Instead they blame their incompetence on the "bad deer" and rush out to kill as many as possible.

If Murk had some years of experience under his belt, he'd have that incestuous relationship with the ODN writers more organized. That moose article should have never run so close to the same time they were going to announce the next assault on deer. At this point, the only place left without a visible agenda in place is the northwest. CWD will continue to rule zone 3 and start to mushroom out from Crow Wing County in zone 2. They'll continue to push it up into zone 1 where I am and towards Duluth. There are no deer in SW MN already, so they're done there. And moose will be the crisis in the arrowhead.
All corners will eventually have their own crisis which will just happen to call for the same solution: Get rid of the deer

What part of MN would be considered the "power base" of MDHA?

I am waiting for some press release where the deer are hurting the elk population in NW Mn., or the proposed elk population for the area south of Duluth.
