Title: fawn crop
Post by: butch on November 14, 2011, 10:27:25 pm

has anyone in the drought striken midwest noticed a shortage of fawns ? in n e ok. i hunt 5 mornings a week and havent seen one yet. i think a shortage of green food this summer weakened them and they became yote food. the coyotes seem abundent this year. they stole a nice hide from a tub of lye on my front porch.  just wondering if others are not seeing fawns this year, if so, it would mean a reduced herd size for several years.  thanks   butch

We have too many fawns up here in Mich. Every doe has two or three in tow until the bucks run them off during the rut. We didnt suffer any serious droughts this year though.
