are you sure he was a whitetail?

boneaddict · « **Reply #2 on:** January 02, 2011, 11:35:46 AM »

I keep hearing rumors. Would like to see him.

what would the regs be for that if you happen to see a whitetail in a predominatly mule deer unit where they have no regs for em? i saw a nice 2pt white tail about 7 years ago in the teanaway. now one believed me until we bow hunted it a few years later and my hunting partner was 15 yds from a doe, also a white tail.

I have seen one white tail in the teanaway. It was years ago. Haven't seen one since.

I would assume that if the regs don't SPECIFICALLY mention "mule deer only" or "whitetail harvest prohibited" then they would be harvestable. Of course, point restrictions, sex restrictions, etc would still apply. (i.e. 3 point minimum, antlerless only, etc)

im going to try to get pic tonight

E-Town Hunter · « **Reply #8 on:** January 02, 2011, 01:19:53 PM »

I would assume that it is any white tail buck hunting in that unit but I would have to check the regs. That is what it is in the Beezly unit. Units where white tail aren't commonly found is any buck to get them out of the population.

Boneaddict, I know of 6 whitetails within 40 miles of where you live

Seriously they are moving up our way. I have seen two bucks and four does.

carpsniperg2 · « **Reply #11 on:** January 02, 2011, 05:00:48 PM »

They sure have spread out! We have had a few dandy bucks killed around here

time2hunt · « **Reply #12 on:** January 02, 2011, 05:28:21 PM »

Is that the buck that was in the canyon

groundhog · « **Reply #13 on:** January 02, 2011, 05:42:37 PM »

I have pictures but I don't have permission to show them. It is definitely a Whitetail.

There are supposed to be 4 whitetail does in Yakima living on the greenway between 40th and 1st street. I have heard of sightings from different guys for about a year now.

I found a whitetail shed in the nile a few years back....

They are a coming

wackmaster · « **Reply #15 on:** January 02, 2011, 09:15:25 PM »

There is more than 6 klickriverchromer has proof

DBHAWTHORNE · « **Reply #16 on:** January 02, 2011, 09:30:05 PM »

Whitetail are one of the most adaptable animals in the deer family. They will continue to expand. They are an invasive species and will generally outcompete Mule Deer for habitat. Being the much older species they are more resistant to parasites and diseases than Mule Deer and often they are carriers of diseases the Muleys don't handle well.. I am a whitetail guy but I know the Mule Deer across the west can't afford a bigger decline. Hopefully the WDFW has something in their mind for dealing with them in those areas before they get a stronghold.

It's funny you mention disease. I seem to recall reading that it was due to a parisite found in ticks or flies in central WA that keeps them from spreading west. Blue tongue? Not sure.

Not sure how a native species that has not been introduced by people into an area is an "invasive" species though.... Starlings and house sparrows brought from England; scotchbroom, also from Great Britain; northern timber wolves from Canada

.... But WT deer have simply hoofed it here themselves. The Columbia Whitetail made it all the way to the coast.

I had a buddy 10 years ago that shot a whitetail muley hybrid up near Quartz Mt

Yeah, EHD/Blue Tongue is a massive whitetail killer but they still exist in areas that have had massive die offs. I have never heard how it keeps them spreading West. That is very interesting. I will have to do more research.

They don't have to be introduced to an area by man to be invasive. If there are Whitetails moving into traditional mule deer habitat, outcompeting and displacing mule deer (this has happened in other places in the last 50 years alone) they are an invasive species. Of course I love that whitetails are proliferating. They are my favorite thing to hunt.

Looks like one to me. They are also in the Klickitat.

It would be nice to have a clearer picture, but that sure does look like a whitetail to me too.

what would the regs be for that if you happen to see a whitetail in a predominatly mule deer unit where they have no regs for em?

All the GMUS (328, 334, 335) around Ellensburg have specific regulations for each specie so it's not a problem, at least in that area.

cem3434 · « **Reply #29 on:** January 05, 2011, 11:07:09 AM »

We found a whitetail shed in Manastash up the South Fork of the creek about 4 years ago. My buddy also swears that he seen a whitetail up there last year one day before the season opened too. I have never seen one on the hoof and I always thought the shed must have been a rattling antler that someone lost.

agchawk · « **Reply #30 on:** January 05, 2011, 11:23:55 AM »

I'd lay money down that that's a whitetail. Well, after the cash I spent over the holidays maybe I'll just bet a pop. Either way, it sure looks like a whitetail to me.

My wife and I collect sheds and I have a pretty nice one from that area. Unless someone is dropping them just to be funny...

Looks like a whitey to me. Hope they make it to the west side.

I guide on the Yakima year round and I have seen white tails along the river a few times. The last time was this fall and they were a doe and two fawns just upstream from the railroad bridge that crosses the river just down in the canyon. I have also seen 2 smallish bucks down on the other side of the river at Wymer that were 100% whitetail.
