Abstract:

A rule change by the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission for the 1999-2000 hunting season required hunters to record their harvests on a Big Game Harvest Report Card instead of tagging wild turkey, bear, deer, and boar as in past seasons. The Division of Wildlife Management uses this data to determine a species population status before it sets bag limits for the next season.

The prime objective of the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission's game lands program is to provide more hunters with more lands where they are free to go whenever the seasons are open. Amundson describes the program's eastern section, which is located in the Coastal Plains and covers over 664,512 acres that are under intensive wildlife management.

Barick, Frank B.

Abstract:

In recent years there has been a demand from North Carolina hunters for more big game in the state. In this article Barick discusses the three objectives of North Carolina's big game restoration program and the methods by which they will be accomplished. The objectives are to increase the supply of big game in the state, principally deer at the program's start; to create more refuges and public hunting grounds; and to develop more efficient big game management techniques.

Abstract:

Overhunting and increasing human population brought about the decline of the wild turkey across the country from millions to around 30,000 at the start of the 20th-century. The National Wild Turkey Federation sponsors Target 2000, a project that seeks to restore the wild turkey nationwide by the year 2000. By April, 1999, the state's wild turkey population will reach 100,000, with habitats in all 100 counties.

Abstract:

In areas hit hard by storms, including Hurricane Hugo, the population of red-cockaded woodpeckers has declined. This is because the storms wreaked havoc on live, old trees, which the woodpeckers need to build their nest cavities. Now a simple nesting device developed by North Carolina Wildlife Commission non-game biologist David Allen is helping the population recover.

Abstract:

Between 1992 and 2001, in coastal waters from New Jersey to North Carolina, 210 bottlenose dolphins were killed by becoming entangled in gill nets used by fishermen. The dolphins become entangled either by accidentally running into the nets or by being caught while eating the fishing catch. Angione reports on a study funded by the North Carolina Fishery Resource Grant program to study whether acoustic alarms can keep the dolphins away from the gill nets.
