2023 has been a busy year for the western part of Wyoming regarding mule deer management—a brutal winter that was perhaps one of the most devastating winters on record may have been the most impactful winter to this herd since it was conceptualized in 1982. Wyoming hunters are looking to this winter with interest as a precipitation-rich spring and summer has produced improved forage conditions…while wondering what might happen if we get a repeat winter like last year.
On another front, mule deer in the region will have one less hazard to contend with, and that's the crossing of Highway 189 near Big Piney. Wyoming Game and Fish Wildlife Biologist Gary Fralick weighs in to discuss both topics.
