Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Louisiana Conservationist, Vol. 10: March 1958
Although the general physical condition of the deer in regards to body fat was good, gross field examinations of about 10% of the stomachs revealed an absence of any browse, but instead agricultural crops and weeds of agriculture comprised the only identifiable foods. Two visits into the woods failed to reveal much deer sign away from the fields and there was no evidence of recent deer use of wood browse species. The forested portion of the problem area is virtually stripped of its ability to support deer and the continued over-browsing has begun to seriously effect the species composition and timber reproduction of the forest both from a commercial timber reproduction and a deer welfare standpoint.
