In event of full scale SHTF your not gonna be able to hunt really anything effectively after a year. Wisconsin has one of the highest deer density’s of any state 24 per square mile Wisconsin is 65,498 square miles equaling approx (rounded up) 1.6 million deer but 895,000 hunters are reported annually (yes I’m aware some are out of state but remember this is SHTF anyone able to is gonna be out there hunting) Wisconsin has a population of 5.89 million people 38% of the population (not counting people right across boarder) is between 20-49 (most likely age of people able to survive) 38% of 5.89M is 2.238 million people, say only 50% of that population survives initial SHTF and or is able to hunt that’s still 1.119 Million people which would possibly hunt. Which is why it blows my mind when I hear people think there will be game after SHTF, because last year to in Wisconsin had a 37% success rate meaning even based off legal hunters strictly that’s 331,000 deer (assuming 1 per hunter only) bagged a year of normal season. That’s not counting that in SHTF people are gonna shoot them year round, the season in Wisconsin is approx 4 months for all season types meaning we can times that 331k by 3 (but I’m gonna do 2.5 for argument sake of decreasing population) that’s 827500 deer gone of the 1.6 million leaving 772,500 but let’s say that the population is capable of doubling a year the population will still dwindle to nothing in a few years and that’s assuming strictly 1 deer per every 4 months by hunters at a 37% bag rate the population wouldn’t be reliable after even 3 years
