Unfortunately, I am unable to attend in person this year, but I would still like to state my opinion on the 2025 big game quota recommendations. Lats year I believe the Elko CAB was on the right track with pushing back against NDOW's recommended mule deer quotas and helping our deer herds to try and grow. While I do understand the "science" behind NDOW's recommendations to increase tag quotas due to higher than desired buck to doe ratios, I will say I do not agree with nor support the 2025 recommended mule deer quotas. I am in favor of continuing the downward trend in tag quotas similar to last year in an effort to bolster our overall deer numbers in the State.
