PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY, Va. -- Hunters this fall will be allowed to bring their bows and arrows to three Prince William County properties to hunt for whitetail deer.
Rippon Lodge in Woodbridge, Locust Shade Park in Triangle, and Doves Landing, a county-owned preserve along Cedar Run outside Manassas will be the sites of the pilot archery deer management program. The Prince William County Board of Supervisors approved the trial hunt at Tuesday's meeting.
The whitetail deer population in recent years has exploded and had become a problem to both wildlife and humans, according to county documents. Officials will work over the summer to implement the trail hunt, as well as choose which hunters will be invited to participate in the program.
