T -A photo To -extend deer hunt The success of the selective harvest program introduced in 1980 has allow- ed the Ministry of Natural Resources to extend the 1986 deer hunting season in several areas in Ontario. "The positive impact of our selec- tive deer harvest program, coupled with telajtively mild winters in recent years, has allowed Ontario's deer population to double within the last six years to an estimated herd of 200,000," said Natural Resources Minister Vincent Kerrio. "The extended hunting season will allow more recreational opportunities for hunters in the coming season, as well as reducing problems caused by deer --such as crop damage and deer - car collisions." The following Wildlife Management Units (WMUs) in the Algonquin region will have new archery seasons: 48, 57, 58, 59 and 60A. Anyone wishing to hunt antlerless deer in 1986 must purchase a deer licence --available in early June --and then correctly complete and return the attached antlerless deer tag ap- plication to local Ministry district of- fices or to the address on the applica- tion by no later than 5 p.m., July 31. Those who wish to hunt in controll- ed deer hunt areas should contact the district office in the area of interest for information and application forms. Applications must be sent to the MNR district office which cor- responds to your first WMU choice. Cut-off date is 5 p.m., August 29.
