according to estimates at the
California fish and game com
mission and the United States
forest service.
The deer are increasing de
spite the fact that hunters each

tain lions kill at least 30,000.
Mountain lions, however, are
comparatively rare in the state,
estimates placing their number
at about 300. Since 1907. when
a bounty was put on lions and
a state hunter employed, 4.10S
of the big cats have been killed,
an average of 257 yearly. It
Is estimated that a lion will kill
one deer each week. Other
causes, disease, accident and
<^-otes are believed to account
for another 30,000 deaths of
deer annually. Thus the esti
mated yearly death rate of the
deer is 100,000.
