Spilyay Tymoo, Warm Springs, Oregon August 22, 2002 Page 5 Changes noted for 2002 hunting season By Bill Rhoades Spilyay Tymoo A reduction in the bag limit on buck deer and increased opportunities to harvest antlerless elk are the major changes awaiting hunters on the Warm Springs Reservation this season. Tribal Council recently adopted hunting seasons and regulations for 2002 as pro posed by the Fish and Wild life staff and committee. For the most part hunters will be looking at seasons and bag lim its similar to last year, with the two notable exceptions being those mentioned earlier. The bag limit on deer will be one antlered buck per fam ily in September and one ant lered buck per family in Octo ber, down from three bucks per season in 2001. Hunters must return their September tags to receive a tag for October. One designated hunting tag will be allowed in addition to a personal tag. Designated tags will be issued only for elders and handicapped tribal mem bers. Biologists said the local deer population has been increasing gradually over the past 10 years, but buck to doe ratios have fallen below management objectives, which prompted managers to recommend a re duced bag. A growing elk herd, cur rently numbering approxi mately 800 animals, has en couraged managers to recom mend additional hunting op portunities for that species. The 2002 season will feature an antlerless elk season begin ning Nov. 9 and ending Nov. 30 (a week longer than last year) with a limit of one antlerless elk per family. A to- A growing elk herd, currently numbering approximately 800 animals, has encour aged managers to recommend additional hunting opportunities. tal of 200 tags will be issued for the 2002 season, up from 100 a year ago. A hunter must exchange their unused bull elk tag to re ceive an anterless elk tag. Antlerless elk tags will be is sued on a first come, first serve basis. The bull elk season will run Nov. 1 to Nov. 30 with a bag of 1 antlered elk per family. Regulations for hunting bear are unchanged from last season. Bear may be hunted in Sept., Oct. and Nov.
