Hunters must be <br /> parked in designated parking slots in order to hunt. One vehicle per slot and it will be <br /> on a first come,first serve basis. <br /> ® Hunting, fishing, and trapping opportunities will be offered. Pheasants, waterfowl, deer, <br /> ruffed grouse,turkey, rabbit, and squirrel are the primary prospective game species. <br /> ® Watercraft access to the Rum River for hunting and fishing opportunities is provided for <br /> on the west of the river at Rum River Central Regional Park. <br /> 0 There will be special drawing deer seasons for: archery, shotgun/slug, and <br /> muzzleloader. The number of permits issued will be based on the estimated deer <br /> density and the available hunting acreage. There will also be late season Pheasant and <br /> Goose hunting opportunities. <br /> 0 A comprehensive wildlife habitat and ecological restoration plan will be developed and <br /> implemented in an effort to sustain balanced populations of plant and animal species <br /> across the conservation area. <br /> ® Hiking, cross country skiing, and wildlife viewing will be strongly encouraged outside of <br /> the hunting seasons. <br /> Meeting(11130L09)with Minnesota Department of Natural Resources—Wildlife Section: <br /> Dave Schad, Director <br /> Dennis Simon, Chief <br /> Tim Bremicker, Area Manager <br />
