Update: 2024-01-25
Description
In this episode, the host shares his experience of discovering new hunting spots while waiting for a biologist. He also discusses the current status of the mule deer population and the increasing fawn mortality. The mystery of a missing collar is explored, and the concept of additive mortality in relation to prairie dog colonies is explained.
Takeaways
- Exploring new areas and spending time quietly can lead to the discovery of new hunting spots.
- Mule deer populations can be affected by fawn mortality, which can be influenced by weather and predators.
- The disappearance of a collar without a carcass raises questions about the fate of the animal.
- Additive mortality can occur in isolated populations, such as prairie dog colonies when hunting activities put additional pressure on the animals.
