WHITETAILS: Treasure, Trophy, or Trouble:
Hunters, farmers, homeowners, motorists and wildlife watchers each may have their own opinions of deer – but it’s no exaggeration to say that Iowa’s prolific deer herd affects nearly every person in the state.
How can that be, when Iowa’s originally abundant deer had nearly vanished a century ago – and deer have become relatively common only in recent decades?
The history of Iowa deer – from feast to famine to smorgasbord – is testimony to the incredible adaptability of deer, as well as to a century of conservation and restoration efforts.
Whitetail: Treasure, Trophy or Trouble? traces that fascinating history. Now <font color="red">Larry Stone </font> has adapted his book, written in 2003 for the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, into an informative slide lecture. It’s a story with broad appeal to anyone interested in Iowa’s outdoors. The 40-minute program includes photos by Larry and premier wildlife photographer Roger Hill of Roland, Iowa.
Plan to join Page County Conservation personnel and welcome Mr. Stone to Page County to share this program with us. The presentation will be <font color="blue">Saturday, November 19, 2005 beginning at 1 p.m. at the Conservation Center (former AmVets facility) located 1 mile north of Clarinda on Highway 71.</font>
