Abstract:

Since 1976, North Carolina has required hunters to report their big game harvest. Game managers use this information to make decisions affecting hunting seasons, bag limits, and other regulatory matters. Report Number 13 covers the 1988-1989 hunting season and lists statistics by counties for game harvests of black bear, white-tailed deer, wild boar, and wild turkey

Abstract:

Six rail species inhabit North Carolina, with the king rail the largest and the black rail the smallest. Earley describes the clapper rail, one of four rails that breed in the state. Rails are often called marsh hens because of their salt marsh habitats and chicken-like build and are more easily heard than seen.
