Filed under: Ask Grant, Deer Management
Hi, My name is Seth and I am the private lands conservationist technician for Fremont and Mills counties in Iowa. What information or literature would you recommend to look at from a management standpoint regarding white-tailed deer? I wish to educate myself so I can help landowners with questions they have regarding this matter. I would really appreciate it. Seth
Seth,
There are many sources of information that may be of value. Some of the sources may not be directly related to white-tailed deer. For example, there are several sources of information about prescribed fire, soil fertility, etc., that are not considered specific to deer management. The Quality Deer Management Association produces a great magazine titled Quality Whitetails that includes lots of deer and habitat information. You might check out my book, “Deer Management 101,” as a source of deer population management information. We also host multiple field days annually at The Proving Grounds for hands on deer and habitat information.
Growing Deer together,
Grant
