and range management.
Douglas said that the mild winter
made a dose count of the deer .nd
ilk difficult in some places. The
deep snow that ordinarily cone m-
t rates these animals onto smaller
range areas where they can be
counted with some accuracy did
not occur. Elk have not only in
creased in numbers but have spread
into new range. They are found on
every Oregon forest except the
Umpqua and Fremont, and every
Washington forest except the Col
ville, Ghelan and Mount Baker. The
mule deer increase probably ex
ceeded the number killed. The Mal
heur and Fremont ranges are over-
populated, the Deschutes under
stocked.
The antelope herd increased rapid
ly both on the national forests and
on the range outside. The State of
Washington has made a plant of 23
head. The Biological Survey planted
24 head of Rocky Mountain sheep
>n the Hart Mountain antelope re-
erve. This is considered first class
bighorn range, according to the Bio
logical Survey.
Blacktail deer may have increas
ed slightly, but a good estimate is
hard to make. They are scattered
and live in dense cover. Predatory
-nimals and (poachers keep the num
ber dcwn, Douglas said.
