  Ep. 29 - A Biologist's Perspective Deer Over Population with Clint McCoy

  Aug 31, 20262h 16m

  In this week's episode, we talk dig deeper into the impact that high deer densities can have on the health of a forest and, consequently, on the Ruffed Grouse by talking with whitetail deer biologist Clint McCoy. Clint provides a professional and biological perspective to how deer impact native habitat and forest health. We discuss: Why whitetail deer are a density-dependent species. For Ruffed Grouse, we should manage for quantity. For whitetails, we should manage for quality. Biologically and ecologically speaking, is EHD actually a good thing?! How hunting culture can influence wildlife habitat. Does baiting for deer have a positive or negative impact on native habitat/ How fewer deer results in healthier deer, bigger bucks, and better deer hunting. How deer can impact forest regeneration and habitat composition, which directly affects ruffed grouse populations. A realistic approach to solving the high deer density problem at a landscape scale.
