Deer hunting season starts today, and biologists are projecting it to be another busy one.
Ryan Scott, the regional supervisor for the Alaska Department of Fish &Game, said they usually issue more than 10,000 harvest tickets in Southeast Alaska for deer and there’s no reason to expect this season to be any different.
Experts believe the deer population will be healthy this year, Scott said, and an ADFG release stated that because of an unseasonably mild winter, there has been good fawn production and very few deer died as a result of cold.
