OSU Bulletin IH-ar F.diiors: Here Is an excerpt from Don Holm's column in the Oregon- Ian that I lelieve illustrates very well what some of us have been sure of for a long time. According to the Came Com mission, the small antcloiic herd j in I'matilla counly transplanted there three years ago, has doub-, led iri numbers in a single sum- mer due to a coyote control pro gram to reduce predatmn on newborn fawns . Five Died After two seasons during which only one baby antelope survived, the program was in stituted to save the dwindling herd. The original 17 animals formed the nucleus of the herd on the Ib.OOO acre range near the Umatilla Army Depot. Of these 10 were adult females, 2 adult bucks and 5 fawns from the nrcvlous sorine. Five of lh animals died that spring and'alul summer, leaving a fall popula Hon of 12 adults. !.!"i. Robert Ball and Brian left last week to Join her Navy hu-bai.d stationed at Treasure Island. Calif.
