I know it is." Coggins continued "But you couple all of it together ami you've got a deer herd in trouble And I've got a bunch of them (in trouble! right now , but I've got a little hope that with this fall forage maybe next year we ll be ublr to start having some fawns again Coggins emphasized that even severe winters can be survived by greater numbers oi iteer it tall torage conditions allow them to begin the winter in excellent condition " I'd have to agree," said Rod Ingram " If (Iasi fall) we'd have had deer in the condition they're in this year, our losses wouldn't have been anywhere near as bad as what wc saw " Ingram said that deer stop gam ing body weight and their condition begins to recede during November each year, even when aided by supplemental teeding programs "They virtually begin starving to death from November on ITieir reserves (stored bods fat) will keep them alive until March ami April when (hey start to see some relief If you don't have too bad of a winter or if they’ve got a lot of reserves, they come through in good shape II not.j they use up all their reserves and they starve to death " Ingram said that while conditions appear to be improving, the young bucks becoming available for next year's deer season arc still the product j of last spring s fawn crop, the result of which will not be known until biologists complete their herd composition surveys in mid December Unless fawn production was much higher than expected. Ingram looks (or the 1990 deer season to be subject to reduce tag numbers and/or shorten cd seasons similar to those imposed in 1989 " There arc probably some areas that are not as bail as we thoguht they were going to be. but wc probably still do not have a good fawn crop j If I had to guess off the top of my head.
