Title: Old #3
Post by: alwinearcher on January 09, 2014, 03:15:30 PM: Ive been getting this deer on camera for the last few months. She has a tracking collar and tags in both ears with the number 3.
Anyone know what study this might be for? The deer is near Deer Park.

Post by: 92xj on January 09, 2014, 03:35:12 PM: whitetail migration tracking. The heard in that area is one of the few whitetails heards that migrate 20+ miles in the country, I believe thats the correct information that I read during a study. I will see what I can dig up. I remember reading one does they tracked went from her summer and fall grounds on the banks of the PO all the way to the little PO refuge during the winter and spring months at over 20miles as the crow flies.
I could be dreaming all this, but I know I read about it somewhere.

In the link that 92 provided it said that North Central High was involved in the study. Maybe make contact with them and shoot the picture over to them.

Of course, we'll ask that you post a map of the deers activities so we can figure out where at least one of your camera sites are. :chuckle:

Yeah I had remembered reading about that study a few months back, but I didn't know if they had collared deer that far south.

Interesting huh? It's amazing how far those deer migrate down southward to the lake. It's also amazing how many get pulverized while crossing US 395 on their way down there :'(
