South Dakota Game, Fish & Parks alters August Canada goose season
Published: , in Outdoor News
The South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks Department has decreased the number of counties open for the August “management take” of locally-produced Canada geese, citing both declining population levels and conflicts with landowners as central to the change in management of the large waterfowl species.
Rocco Murano, chief waterfowl biologist with the GF&P, says that the overall population of resident Canada geese in eastern South Dakota appears to be within the management goal of 115,000 to 165,000 birds.
