Abstract:

This study seeks to identify the principal predators of deer in the southeastern United States and to determine their impact on deer herds and deer management. Other forms of deer mortality are also included. Barick discusses the study procedure, the size of the wildlife areas studied, how the data was analyzed, and how predation by dogs was measured. Data for dog predation was collected from western North Carolina wildlife management areas.

Abstract:

Lake Waccamaw, the largest natural lake in the eastern part of the state, covers 8,936 acres. The lake supports a good pelagic fish population and fair fishing. Fish species harvested there include white perch, largemouth bass, pumpkinseed, and blue gill. In an effort to improve the fishing, fish shelters constructed out of old automobile tires have been placed in the lake. The shelters, or fish hides, contained approximately thirty tires each and were built in a pyramid shape.
