Assignment task:
Role - Bed and Breakfast Owner: This stakeholder makes a living off tourists who come to the region to hike, bird watch, or hunt deer. They have noticed that since the rules were changed to allow hunting on Sundays (until 1997 there was no hunting allowed on Sundays) that fewer non-hunting people are staying at the B&B during hunting season. Additionally, since there has been a decline in the number of people interested in hunting, they can no longer rely on hunters alone to keep the B&B profitable.
Think about the position your assigned stakeholder role would take in stakeholder negotiations addressing deer management. Answer the following questions based on your assigned role: Are there too many deer? Too few deer? What management options should be taken to manage the population?
