Participate in setting deer population goals
Minnesotans interested in deer populations can help shape deer population goals in the southwestern and northeastern areas of the state during an open public input process. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources sets deer population goals — the desired increase or decrease in a deer population in a particular deer permit area — as part of the state’s wild deer management. Find details on the DNR’s deer goal-setting webpage (.dnr.state.mn.us/mammals/deer/management/population.html).
