I knew a few exotics when I was younger, but their upkeep was beyond my budget.TGT Members. Do any of you trade, trap or transport exotics?
BTDT. Those are tough but valuable lessons, aren't they?I knew a few exotics when I was younger, but their upkeep was beyond my budget.
You made this entirely too easy.Got a trouser python.
I am hearing the same from land owners all through the hill country.Not sure about exotics... but my buddy told me a TP&W biologist told him that we lost 57% of the deer population from the 3 months of 100+ degrees summer. My suspicion was confirmed. My deer population damn near disappeared.
So, my question is.... are they gonna curb tags next few years...?I am hearing the same from land owners all through the hill country.
Has been described as a “Rebuilding Year” to put it in sportsball terms.
Far fewer deer in my area of west Bandera County than ever in 30 years.Not sure about exotics... but my buddy told me a TP&W biologist told him that we lost 57% of the deer population from the 3 months of 100+ degrees summer. My suspicion was confirmed. My deer population damn near disappeared.
Really sad to hear. But those that survived surely pass down some hardy genes.Far fewer deer in my area of west Bandera County than ever in 30 years.
I had no intention stealing your dinner. LolYou made this entirely too easy.
Spit it out, that ain’t yours
TPDW will do their usual counts and publish what the " take" was. For a governmental agency they are pretty well run. If there is a need to adjust the tags, by all means they will address. They normally have hearing before any substantial changes are made. They have a fairly well-run web page and a monthly new letter. If you read the rules, white tail tags are set for each specific county. If there is a substantial die off in a county or multiple counties, they will address it.So, my question is.... are they gonna curb tags next few years...?
Incorrect( well body size you are correct, but lack of real winter plays a huge part in that ) but you can get some phenomenal antler growth on low fence if you cull trashy antlered deer and does.I didn't realize Texas had deer outside of ranch deer.
Everything I came across outside a ranch looked more like a greyhound with antlers.
