The Illinois Department of Natural Resources invites deer hunters, landowners, and others interested in deer management to attend public meetings regarding potential changes in archery deer hunting regulations in five eastern Illinois counties. The IDNR Division of Wildlife Resources will host the public open house meetings to provide information about the status of deer populations in the affected counties, and to accept comments on a number of alternative management options intended to boost deer populations in Champaign, Douglas, Macon, Moultrie and Piatt counties. Most of these options would require changes to the archery regulations that have been in effect for the past several years. The first meeting will be June 12th from 5:00-7:00 p.m. at Forbes Natural History Building at the University of Illinois, and the second will be June 14th, also from 5-7, at Rock Springs Nature Center in Decatur.
