THE FARMER-RANCHER VS.. the Deer
and Antelope problem is very real and one
that the Montana Fish and Game Commits
sion has recognized for some considerable
time. The problem involves the interests
of the farmer and the rancher who provide
the habitat for the game animal and the in
terests of the sportsmen who, for the most
part, reside in the urban areas.
We regret to advise that there is no gen.
orally satisfactory solution at this time, but
we are happy to state that great steps to-
ward reasonably satisfactory solutions have
been made.
Still greater steps are necessary in order
to bring about the desired solution of this
problem and these steps can be accom-
plished only through the mutual coopera-
ton of the interested individuals.
No Quick Solution
We must recognize the fact that it is a
human trait to overlook the obvious. Many
times, when we do overlook the obvious, we
are inclined to jump to unfair and unwiSe
conclusions. The obvious in this case, |
should like to point out is that a problem
the size of this one was many, many years
in the building and therefore is not likely
to be solved in a matter of few months.
A great deal of groundwork has been
done that will allow us to put into practice
wise game management theories that can
be used to control definitely the present
over abundance of deer and antelope in
many areas.
