Deer populations continue to rebound from several harsh winters about a decade ago.<\/p>\n<p>The agency issued 55,150 licenses in 2018. It has a goal of 75,000 licenses as early as next year.

That&#8217;s because of a reduction in wildlife habitat due to oil development and reduced grassland areas resulting from changes in farming practices.<\/p>\n<p>The regular deer gun season is in mid-November.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BISMARCK, N.D.
