Any of you young guys interested in going to school to become a deer biologist??

4 years for the BS Wildlife Biology degree, 3 for the Masters degree.

And a few thousand keyboard warriors and "arm chair wildlife biologists" think they have the solution for the deer herd and you are a moron.

And you make $39K/year =)

I know that not many feel kind of sorry for the DNR, but when you think this through, even without the influence of those who don't hunt, I still feel that they are in one ridiculous situation.

I am not interested. I will say I would much rather value the opinion of someone who has been an avid hunter and conversationist of numerous years as you call an "armchair biologists" over someone who got a sheepskin for 7 years of listening to liberal professors.

But then again I'm probably quite a bit different from most of my generation as I put an emphasis in common sense and work ethic over a college education any day. I have a BS degree and I will say that is mostly what it is BS. Sure there are those who work hard and the degree supplements them but there are many more who are college educated idiots. Agreed it may be a necessity but it isn't the be all and end all.... as it is often viewed by some. JMO
