B3 SPORTS East Oregonian Hunters: Continued from Page B1 But in 2020, officials from the Oregon Depart- ment of Fish and Wildlife announced a proposal to change archery hunts from general to controlled for deer and elk, starting in 2021. Agency officials cited multiple reasons for the proposal, including a grow- ing number of archery hunters over the past few decades, and a higher success rate among hunt- ers due to better bows and arrows that make it possible for archers to make lethal shots from longer distances. ODFW said the number of archers hunting elk in Eastern Oregon rose from about 12,300 in 1995 to about 18,500 in 2019. Because the archer y seasons remained general hunts, with no limits on how many tags were sold, state wildlife’s lone tool to limit hunting and maintain deer and elk herds with sustain- able numbers has been to cut tags for rifl e hunts, Saturday, August 27, 2022 FIRE, OTHER RESTRICTIONS IN EFFECT The U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management, the two federal agencies that manage most of the public land in Northeast- ern Oregon, have each issued press releases urging hunters and others to be responsible during the late summer and fall. The Vale District of the BLM emphasized fi re safety, as well as the potential hazards left by past blazes. “Recreating responsibly ensures that all visitors to the forest have a good experience,” said Brian Anderson, Wallowa Mountains district ranger on the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest. “Picking up your trash, adhering to stay limits, and not storing or caching items on public lands are keystones of responsible recreation.” Anderson said that when visitors build struc- tures, cache items, leave trash or occupy camp- sites longer than 14 consecutive days, which is the limit, they can aff ect other users. Forest Service employees and law enforcement are extracting and impounding caches and camps that are known to be in violation of the which are controlled hunts with limited tags awarded through the lottery system. In choosing which units to change from a general to a controlled archery season, ODFW offi cials considered elk populations in those caching and stay limits. Illegally built structures will also be being removed. Visitors are reminded that the following are prohibited: • Caching personal property for a duration more than 72 hours within designated wilder- ness. • Camping/leaving camp equipment for a dura- tion that exceeds the 14-day stay limit. Building structures such as shelters, tables, toilets, etc. • Cutting or damaging standing live trees. • Leaving campsites in an unsanitary condition by leaving trash or human waste. Fire danger is high or extreme across North- eastern Oregon, and on national forests, campfi res are allowed only in designated campgrounds and in parts of the Eagle Cap Wilderness. Campfi res are prohibited on all public land managed by the BLM. A list of restrictions on BLM, national forest and private lands protected by the Oregon Depart- ment of Forestry is available at http://bmidc. org/restrictions.shtml. units, as well as hunter density and hunter displace- ment, which are based on a public survey of hunters done in 2020. In some units the ratio of bulls to cows is below the state’s goals, and in other units the bull elk harvest is near what biologists consider the unit’s capacity. In some units, archery hunters have been taking as many or more branch-antlered bulls than rifl e hunters have, accord- ing to Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. Although the agency initially planned to change both elk and deer hunts to controlled seasons in 2021, the commission ended up making the shift for deer hunting only starting with the 2021 season. The switch to mostly controlled archery hunts for elk was delayed until 2022. The change to controlled archery hunts, for deer and elk, has been controversial. Bob Reedy, a Baker City bowhunter who also owns an archery shop, said he thinks the changes will result in confusion among hunters, and potentially discourage some longtime hunters from continuing their hobby. Reedy argued that if ODFW wants to bolster bull elk numbers, then the agency should either tempo- rarily ban hunters from kill- ing bulls or change the bag limit to branch-antlered bulls only. The bag limit for many u nits i n Nor theaster n Oregon for this year’s elk archery hunt is one bull elk. The traditional bag limit for archery hunting — any elk — remains in some units. Reedy said he also is concerned the changes will contribute to animosity between archery and rifl e hunters. “We’re all hunters,” Reedy said. More tags than applicants in many units Although the shift from general to controlled hunts means some hunters who are accustomed to being able to hunt every year might not draw a tag through the lottery, ODFW has set tag allocations for most units at levels similar to the number of people who actually hunted during recent general seasons. However, in some popu- lar units the number of controlled hunt tags is well below the number of hunters in recent years. For this year’s archery deer season — the bag limit is one buck with a visible antler — the number of tags in most units is well above the number of first-choice applications for 2021, the fi rst year with controlled archery hunts.
