THE KEY DEER white-tailed deer in appearance except they are lighter in color and there is no Seasonal change, The small islands,or Florida Keys, making up the past and ent range of the Key deer. the Io Key Deer © 1956 Notional Wildlife Federation The diminutive Key deer is in the news again. It is not quite in as precarious a position as it was in 1952 when the National Wildlife Federation devoted the annual National Wildlife Week publicity campaign sign to its plight. It is now two jumps ahead of ex tinction instead of only one jump, as it was four years ago. A bill, recently introduced by Congressman Charles E Bennett of Florida, would allow acquisi tion of lands for a refuge used by these small di'er which are found only on the islands off the south- em tip of Florida. Such a bill if passed by the Congre 18, would allow the S crctary of Interior to acquire up to one thousand acres for the National Key Deer Refuge. This step is considered to be necessary for the restoration of this smallest member of the North American deer family. The Key deer are the smallest of eastern white-tailed deer races. Adult does usually range from 22 to 26 inches in height at front shoulders and from 36 to 44 inches in length, while weighing 40 to 80 pounds. Bucks are slightly larger and may weigh up to 100 pounds. They resemble Virginia Striking It Rich! Doesn’t happen too often nowadays. But many of us are already far richer than we think.

Instead dog s and fire were used to drive • them from smaller Keys into water where they could be easily killed from boats. Under the leadership of Region al Director James Silver of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Florida Game and Fresh Wa ter Commission, and the Monroe County Audubon Society, steps were taken to secure assistance of conservation organizations and conservation-minded individuals in restoring these animals. Mr. Silver’s effective reports on the Key deer and its plight were distributed. Mr. Jay N. Darling, former director of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and first president of the National Wildlife Federation, prepared and distri buted a stirring cartoon to news papers throughout the country. Inquiries were received from prac tically every state and even for eign countries. The Boone and Crockett Club, the Campfire So ciety of New York and the Wild life Management Institute pro vid’d money to pay salary and ex penses of a full-time protector for one year. The information provided by the man employed in this position, Jack C. Watson, served as part of the basis for a management program. The Na tional Wildlife Federation fea tured the Key deer problem in its National Wildlife Week Cam paign of 1952 and raised a “Key Deer, Fund" through popular sub scription that was used to con tinue the program. In 1953 Congress authorized the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to establish a protective area for the Key deer, now known as the Key Deer National Wildlife R ■- fuge. The Florida Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission au- thoriz.d a scientific study of the Key deer and its habitat, as well as assistance with protection pro grams.

This would serve to protect other forms of wildlife as well as the tropical vegetation and natural habitat of the Key deer. At present there are ap proximately 20,000 acres within the range used by the deer. All that they now require for per manent survival is continued pro tection and a reasonable amount of suitable habitat. The land ac quired for expansion of the Na tional Key Deer Refuge would help provide this. It is hoped that the Key deer population can be increased to at least 300 animals. The present habitat can easily support that number, particularly if a year- round fresh water supply is made available throughout the range. Continued cooperation of land owners, coupled with interest and support from national conserva tion organizations and individual conservationists, will be required. The National Wildlife Federa tion centered attention on the plight of the Key deer and other endangered animals during Na tional Wildlife Week last,March.
