Controlled deer hunt set for two Pittsburgh parks
Published: , in Outdoor News
Controlled hunting is slated for two Pittsburgh, Pa., parks this fall in a pilot program aimed at thinning the city’s spiraling population of white-tailed deer.
City council approved legislation Sept. 6 that will allow a limited number of licensed, qualified bowhunters to shoot deer in Frick and Riverview parks over a specified number of days during the upcoming archery season. The city’s chief operating and administrative officer Lisa Frank called it “a baby step” toward developing a more comprehensive, citywide program in future years.
