Pennsylvania’s Deer Chronicles

Recognized as the state animal since 1959, the white-tailed deer can be found from our most remote forests to our most developed cities. Because so many different people are affected by deer, differences of opinion are the common. Although the deer program cannot guarantee personal satisfaction for all people, the Game Commission manages white-tailed deer as attentively, responsibly and responsively as possible.

Pennsylvania's deer program is guided by biological and social goals. Hunters, homeowners, farmers, municipal officials, foresters and others helped establish the Game Commission's deer management goals. These goals focus on the impacts of deer on themselves, habitat and other wildlife, and people. This work, which is never-ending, aims to balance different points of view, so the greatest good can be achieved for all of Pennsylvania's wildlife and citizens for today and tomorrow.

Save Spring Creek Canyon (Rockview Property) Updated 8-15-08

Rep. Hanna amended his bill (HB 1657) on to SB 740, which has passed the Senate. Hanna’s amendment was voted on in the House State Government Committee and could be voted on by the full House floor as any day. As amended, SB 740 will give ownership of almost 1,200 Acres of pristine Spring Creek Canyon property to Penn State for Agriculture Use & Research. We oppose this transfer, and instead support ownership of the land going to the PGC. Rep. Benningholf has an amendment that will allow the land to be purchased by the PGC & PFBC using the escrow money from the SGL 176 Toft Trees property that Penn State ruined. Read PFSC’s testimony and other comments & info to learn why we support the property going to the PGC and what you can still do to try to stop this land steal.
