Butta -

One thing that can drive the population up is as the suburbs spread, the access to hunters and/or natural predators goes away. Whitetails in Maryland have that situation - enough land to thrive, but no way for hunters to get at them.

So you might not see a lot more where you hunt, but the population may actually be higher because of human influences.

Of course, I could just be wildly speculating and that situation may have nothing to do with your report...
