Beginning January 2024, researchers from Bemidji State University will be tagging and collaring deer within Bemidji city limits. The project will study how deer behaviors change in response to the special city archery hunt and will identify methods to improve the efficacy of archery hunting as a management tool for suburban deer populations. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Deer Hunters<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

Deer with tags or collars are available for harvest. An objective of the study is to estimate rates of hunting mortality within the city, so we encourage hunters to neither selectively target nor avoid the harvest of marked deer. Please make harvest decisions as if the collar or tags were not present<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Did you harvest a tagged or collared deer?<\/strong><\/span> Please contact Dr. Haus via email or phone. If leaving a voicemail please give your name, the tag number, and a phone number where you can be reached.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
