Opening day for hunting in Maine survives rainy start

SUN JOURNAL • October 30, 2021

The first day of the 2021 deer hunting season may have been hampered by the weather, but not all hunters let it rain on their parade. The hunting day began early Saturday, a half-hour before sunrise. At Sabattus Deer Processing, the bagged deer, while few, nonetheless came in steadily, dragged from trucks and trunks and weighed. They counted 79 deer by the end of the day.
