1 DEER HUNT RESULTS ON ALABAMA WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT AREAS ANNUAL REPORT, CHRISTOPHER W. COOK STUDY LEADER MAY, 2004 ALABAMA DIVISION OF WILDLIFE AND FRESHWATER FISHERIES Federal Aid Project funded by your purchase of hunting licenses and equipment WILDLIFE RESTORATION PROGRAM Grant Number W-35, Study 2.
2 Annual Report, Job II-A: Kill Studies of Deer on Alabama Wildlife Management Areas Study Leader: Christopher W. Cook Objective: To measure, record, and evaluate the deer harvest on Alabama Wildlife Management Areas. Procedures: Project personnel recorded hunter participation and success on each of the 33 wildlife management areas (WMAs) having deer hunting during the season. Deer were examined and records were made of their sex, age, weight, and antler development. Portions of this information were computed by project cooperators and submitted to the project leader. Discussion: Hunter Participation and Success: The number of deer harvested on each management area, the hunting method, and the man-days of participation are compared in Table I. The figures in Tables I through VIII are considered estimates since season permits are issued on many of the areas. Hunter participation and success may vary due to weather, date of hunt, and length of the season. To better understand overall trends, Tables II through VI compare this season s participation and success with an average of prior years, as well as last year. Participation in stalk hunts increased by over 4,600 man-days from last year s totals. Nineteen of the 27 WMAs offering stalk hunts had an increase in hunter man-days for those hunts. Hunter success decreased, dropping
3 from 23 man-days per deer harvested in to 26 man-days per deer harvested in This success rate was lower than the average of 24 man-days per deer harvested for the period of (Table II). Seventeen WMAs scheduled either-sex deer hunts for youth hunters during the hunting season. Each hunter participating on one of these special hunts had to be less than 16 years of age and had to be accompanied by a non-hunting, licensed adult 25 years of age or older. Total participation on these hunts increased slightly from last year s total of 1,339 hunters to 1,507 hunters for The harvest on these hunts increased from 121 deer in to 130 deer for These totals (hunters and deer harvested) are included in the stalk hunt totals in the following tables. The numbers for these hunts also are listed in Table II-A. The primary purpose of the youth hunts is to acquaint young hunters with deer hunting. These hunts will continue on WMAs where there is sufficient interest. Twenty-two WMAs had a total of 100 hunter s choice draw hunts (Table II-A). Ninety-nine of the 100 hunter s choice hunts were stalk hunts and one hunt was a dog hunt. On this type of hunt, each hunter draws to determine the type of permit the hunter receives, buck only or hunter s choice. The percentage of hunter s choice permits available to hunters ranged from 50% to 100%, depending on the anticipated antlerless deer harvest. The opportunity to harvest antlerless deer on the hunter s choice draw hunts greatly influences the participation, harvest, and hunter success levels shown in the stalk hunt totals. Participation in hunter s choice draw stalk hunts was 31% of the total stalk hunting effort and represented 53% of the total stalk harvest. The hunter success rate for the hunter s choice draw stalk hunts was one deer per 16 man-days of hunter effort, which was over two times higher than the success rate for the bucks only stalk hunts (one deer
4 per 38 man-days of effort). Fifty-nine percent of the harvest from the hunter s choice draw hunts were unantlered deer. Participation in managed dog hunts increased from the totals (Table III). Dog hunting participation was 4% of the total deer hunting effort on WMAs during the season and accounted for 4% of the total harvest. Archery hunting participation was over 1,000 man-days less than last year s totals. Hunter success increased from the season, with individual man-days per deer harvested dropping from 35 to 32 (Table IV). Archery hunting continues to provide a large portion of the hunting recreation on WMAs, representing 27% of the total deer hunting effort and 23% of the total deer harvest. Participation in primitive weapons hunts during the season was stable when compared to the totals. The success rate on PW hunts also decreased, going from 22 man-days per deer harvested during the season to 28 man-days per deer harvested for (Table V). Participation on PW hunts represented 5% of the total deer hunting effort and 5% of the total deer harvested on WMAs for the season. The total hunting effort, as shown in Table VI, showed an increase of just over 4,600 man-days from the totals. This year s hunting effort was over 17,700 man-days higher than the average from the previous five years ( through ). This year s hunter success ratio of one deer harvested per 28 man-days of effort for all deer hunts was lower than last year s (25 man-days per harvest) and the average for the previous five years (24 man-days per harvest).
5 Hunting Pressure and Kill Per Square Mile: Total man-days of deer hunting per square mile, as shown in Table VII, was highest on St. Clair, Demopolis, Freedom Hills, Hollins, Little River, and J. D. Martin-Skyline WMAs and lowest on Seven Mile Island, W. L. Holland and Mobile-Tensaw Delta, Black Warrior, Cahaba River, and Coosa WMAs, respectively. Stalk hunting made up the largest portion of total use per square mile on nearly all areas (25 of 29), archery hunts made up the largest portion of use per square mile on Blue Spring, the Jackson County Areas, and Seven Mile Island, and dog hunts made up the largest portion of use on Scotch. Most areas of Alabama can support a balanced harvest (bucks and does) of ten or more deer per square mile annually, depending on habitat quality. Only one WMA achieved this level of harvest, mainly because of the limited opportunity to harvest antlerless deer with firearms and low hunting pressure on most WMAs (Table VIII). Demopolis had the highest harvest per square mile with 11.0, followed by St. Clair with 9.8, Barbour with 8.4, and Lowndes with 8.3. Weights and Condition of Deer: Average weights of deer within specific age classes are one of the best indicators of overall herd condition (Table IX). An average live weight under 95 pounds for one-year age class males can be an indicator of poor physical condition caused by insufficient nutrition, either from poor habitat, heavy competition for food from other deer, or both. Where the one-year age class males have an average body weight of 95 to 105 pounds on areas with good soils, there should be concern the deer population exceeds the capacity of the land to support the herd in good condition. The deer population should be reduced to a more healthy level in any situation where competition for food is the cause of low body weights in deer. Areas in Alabama with one-year age
6 class males averaging above 110 pounds usually are not carrying an excess of deer and efforts should be made to keep those populations at these levels. Three of the twenty-one WMAs reporting had yearling body weights at or exceeding 110 pounds. These three areas were Black Warrior, Little River, and Lowndes WMAs. Nine more WMAs reported yearling buck body weights between 100 and 110 pounds for one-year age class males. Four WMAs had average yearling buck body weights of 90 pounds or less. These areas were Scotch, Blue Spring, Choccolocco, and Kinterbish. Antler Development: Antler development (number of points, main beam length, and inside spread) for all age classes of bucks was very good on some areas, such as Autauga, Barbour, Black Warrior, Cahaba River, Choccolocco, Covington, Freedom Hills, Hollins, Mulberry Fork, Sam R. Murphy, and Wolf Creek, but remains poor on others (Tables X and X-A). In most situations, a high percentage of spikes in the one-year age class and a significant occurrence of spikes in the older age classes are a reflection of poor habitat conditions and/or an overcrowded population. The heavy harvest of yearling bucks on WMAs prevents significant numbers of bucks from reaching the older age classes. This alone is going to continue to limit the number of quality bucks (>2.5 years old) harvested from most of the WMAs. Corrections to both nutritional deficiencies and buck age structure are necessary in order to bring about improvements in the quality of bucks harvested. However, on areas with poor soil fertility and/or habitat quality, reducing competition for food by reducing deer populations may require the removal of more deer than may be acceptable to many WMA hunters. On very poor quality sites, even a significant reduction in deer numbers may not produce improvements in deer quality. For this reason, some areas may not be suited for this type of management.
7 Five WMAs were under quality deer management (QDM) guidelines for the hunting season. The season was the fifth year Barbour WMA has been under QDM, the fourth year for Covington WMA, the second year for both Freedom Hills and Lauderdale WMAs, and the first year for Lowndes WMA. On all five WMAs, bucks must have at least 3-points on one antler to be legal for harvest and hunters have more opportunity to harvest antlerless deer on gun deer hunts. Barbour, Covington, and Lauderdale WMAs have shown considerable improvements in the age structure of the antlered buck harvest since initiation of the QDM programs. For the hunting season, the overwhelming majority of the reported antlered buck harvest on these areas was comprised of 2½ year old and older deer (Barbour 79%, Covington 72%, Lauderdale 100%). Prior to the implementation of the antler restrictions, 1½ year olds were the largest age class in the annual buck harvest. Over time, the current management strategies on all five areas should continue to produce a higher percentage of adult bucks in the population, as well as a more balanced adult sex ratio, more intense rutting behavior, and many other traits characteristic of a healthy, balanced deer herd managed under QDM. Biologists on these areas will continue to collect biological data, as well as public opinion data, to monitor the status of the deer herd and the hunters using these five WMAs. These data will be used to evaluate the effectiveness of current management practices used on the areas and aid biologists in making decisions to help achieve their long-term management objectives. As the public s demand for more WMAs managed for better quality deer becomes stronger, the Division of Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries may decide to initiate QDM programs on other public hunting areas in the future. The majority of Alabama s WMAs will continue to be managed for maximum opportunity for buck harvest until that time.
8 Remarks: Wildlife management areas provide a significant proportion of the deer hunting opportunity in Alabama. This year a 51% sample of the total deer harvest on WMAs was used in Tables IX, X, and X-A. Project cooperators entered check station data on age, sex, weight, and antler development on bucks harvested from WMAs on computer and submitted a copy of these data to the project leader for analysis. Table XI represents the number of male and female deer by age class used in the 51% sample collected from the various management areas. Individual hunt results and district totals are listed in Appendix I. Efforts will continue to improve the accuracy of the tables and to expand our survey when necessary to better manage the resource.
