With the 2007-08 deer seasons closed, Pennsylvania Game Commission Executive Director Carl G. Roe is reminding hunters who participated in the Deer Management Assistance Program (DMAP) that they must complete and submit their report cards either by mail or through the agency's website (www.pgc.state.pa.us) by Sunday, Feb. 10.
Under DMAP, all hunters are required to submit a report card, even if the hunter did not take a deer. This is being done so the Game Commission can measure the effectiveness of the program.
If registering the report through the website, just click on the "DMAP" icon in the center of the homepage and follow the instructions. Hunters will need to provide: their application number, DMAP unit number, coupon number, and birth date; the date of the harvest; the Wildlife Management Unit (WMU), county and township of the harvest; and what type of sporting arm they used. DMAP permits only may be used to take antlerless deer, however, hunters still will need to identify whether the deer was male or female. Hunters also can report that they did not harvest a deer simply by checking a box at this website.
