2...Big Sandy.............67 bucks/100 does.....post hunt pop.....4,180
3...Las Animas............56 bucks/100 does....post hunt pop......7,440
3...Arkansas River........56 bucke/100 does...post hunt pop......7,780
5...North Park.............49 bucks/100 does....post hunt pop......4,220
6...Boulder..................48 bucks/100 does....post hunt pop......7,500

9...Red Table Mtn.........41 bucks/100 does...post hunt pop.......2,130
10..Rifle Creek..............41 bucks/100 does....post hunt pop......7,530

Bottom ten units:

1....Wet Mountain..........19 bucks/100 does...post hunt pop......7,730
2....Bears Ears...............21 bucks/100 does...post hunt pop....31,110
3....White River..............21 bucks/100 does...post hunt pop....43,680
4....Lower Rio Grande......21 bucks/100 does...post hunt pop......5,800
5....South Grand Mesa.....21 bucks/100 does...post hunt pop.....8,320
6....Cripple Creek............22 bucks/100 does...post hunt pop....10,450
7....Sand Dunes..............22.bucks/100 does...post hunt pop.....1,790
8....North Grand Mesa......23 bucks/100 does...post hunt pop....19,210
9....Cottonwood Creek.....23 bucks/100 does...post hunt pop......4,400
10...Groundhog...............24.bucks/100 does...post hunt pop.....22,690

Colorado no longer publishes fawn/doe ratios, at least that I can find, but in the past fawn ratios have been in the high 60's on the spring counts in many units.
