Our DNR gets (makes) harvest statistics by counting deer on cars and in pickup beds from highway overpasses.

Yea, I forgot about that.
You'll see wardens sitting at 'choke points' on roads, quite often (counting animals they can see being hauled out), and asking hunters if they have harvested an animal (in camp, or during license checks).
All the data gets put into the DNR database, and cross referenced with the 'voluntary' reporting the state asks us to do.
