WHERE TO HUNT

In every State where whitetail deer and other animals flourish has set rules and regulations that need to be followed. So unless the hunter happens to be visiting that said State, be prepared to do some homework before going into the woods.Some of the more popular whitetail hunting States like Missouri, Colorado, Texas or even Arkansas have strict laws when it comes to hunting. Missouri, for example, has a $175 charge for non-residents when it comes to deer hunting of any type, and a lot of other things you need to pay, and that's just for firearms. It also excludes some of the other things such as being fur handlers and fishing. Considering the need to protect the number of wildlife to ensure its survival, a controlled system is needed. A limit of two deer and/or turkey per hunter is the requirement for obtaining the permit and can also be purchased online at http://mdc.mo.gov/regs/permits.htm.There have been some recent disputes about the large amount of fees needed just enjoy the thrill of the hunt, but all thing considered it's not like being back in the earlier days where hunting was a necessity rather than just recreation.During the 1940's the need to preserve wildlife has been passed through several States, considering the time where farmers have been complaining about the whitetail deer destroying crops so it became more of a rubout of these animals. It would soon become something like a tourist attraction for some of these States to have deer and other wildlife present in most of the public parks and forests, amounting to millions of dollars in tourist revenue. It has become apparent that preserving wildlife and keeping control is a cycle that every hunter needs to respect and understand, thus the need for permits.This year, the deer season is still around for most of the Northwest States for deer, wild turkey and other recreational game. Studies have shown that the risk of accidental collisions with has lessened for the past few years due to regularized and controlled hunting practices by residents and non-residents alike.With some of these States who have a perfect love and respect for their wildlife is something to be admired, given to the dedication and the need to control and protect these animals in order for a future generation of hunters out there to still have a place to enjoy the very thing this nation has survived.
