Iowa Deer Hunters Asked: Reduce Deer Herd, Feed Needy

This is not a free deal hunters--they are actually donating the price of the deer tag, time, energy to harvest deer for HUSH.
It is a minimum of 37 dollars to get the Primary deer harvest tag and eleven dollars for any/each subsequent harvest doe tag. Does the DNR plan to compensate the hunter for this price or is it a tax deductable cost if the harvest is donated to HUSH?

Hunting Tip: Use the Hide

Over the years I have seen several elk and deer hides left in the woods by hunters and I have to wonder why they do this? I fully understand and agree about getting the hide off the animal as soon as possible to cool the meat, but why not pack out the hide with you and use it? As far as I know there are no state laws that require you to take the hide home, but to me why waste such a beautiful part of the animal? Some might think they have no use for the hide or it costs too much to tan....
