description Since 1966 the Pennsylvania Game Commission has calculated annually the state's deer population using equations based on harvest reports, sex ratios, attrition rates, and recruitment rates. The basic data are obtained through hunter cooperation and by examination of deer by Game Commission field personnel. The computations yield harvest goals by county for the annual 2-day antlerless deer season following the 2-week bucks-only season. The desired harvest is satisfactorily achieved simply by control of the number of antlerless permits allocated which regulates the number of hunters afield in each county.
