Can’t find SD 2023 harvest report

Anyone have a link to the 2023 harvest report? I think it comes out in the summer.
 
I wonder if when the data comes out, will there be two different figures, or perhaps an asterisk denotation? Perhaps similar to the following; "figure A is a total harvest estimate of rooster pheasants in SD. This also includes birds which may or may not have distended nasal passages and/or manicured toenails."
 
Haha. You beat me to it. Flare nares need to be accounted for in that harvest total.
The flare nares reported at preserves by law are 350,000-ish & are not included in hunter surveys. So my guess is FNs shot elsewhere that MIGHT get included in the survey would be at MOST 150,000 & probably considerably less, say 75,000. Either way, it's a drop in the bucket compared to well over 1M. I've come across a grand total of 1 FN in the last several years. Maybe they're just too smart for me & Ace. 😆
