NDA Works to Improve Public Land for Deer Hunting and Conservation
The National Deer Association’s mission is to ensure the future of wild deer, wildlife habitat and hunting. Declines in deer hunter numbers, habitat quality and access are all having significant negative impacts on wildlife conservation. Recent trends suggest declining deer harvests on some federal lands is likely the result of diminishing acreage in active management, and access is continually listed as a major barrier for new and veteran hunters alike. Thus, NDA launched a national initiative entitled Improving Access, Habitat and Deer Hunting on Public Lands, with a goal of improving one million acres by 2026.
What has been accomplished so far toward this project? To-date and along with valuable conservation partners like the USDA Forest Service, NDA has invested $4.9 million, addressed landscape-level access and forest health issues in 18 states, and has helped improve over 745,000 acres of public land - well above pace to reach the five-year goal. In 2023 alone NDA received a $200,000 grant from Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s Outdoor Fund to directly support the public lands initiative, matched $360,043 in cash and in-kind contributions, and secured an additional $2.2 million in federal funding, creating a total funding leverage of nearly 13-to-1 for conservation.
Follow along in this video to see examples of projects occurring on National Forests in Idaho, Mississippi and Kentucky, to hear why this critical work is so important in each community, and what it means for the people that use and enjoy our Nation’s public lands.

The Story of Jason Thomas's Potential Record Breaking Ohio Buck
Переглядів 5245 місяців тому
It wasn’t long after Ohio hunter Jason Thomas walked up on his buck of a lifetime that word started getting out that a potential new Ohio typical record may have fallen. A few weeks later a MeatEater headline read, “Ohio Hunter Kills One of World’s Biggest Whitetails,” and Outdoor Life followed with “Ohio Crossbow Hunter Stalks into Position on a Bedded 200-Class Buck.” More would follow from o...
Can Dogs Detect Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) in Deer?
Переглядів 8935 місяців тому
Dogs have been used in wildlife conservation efforts for years and they may soon be able to help with Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD). A proof-of-concept study conducted by Penn Vet’s Working Dog Center has shown that dogs can differentiate feces of CWD-positive white-tailed deer from those that are negative. Members of the Wildlife Futures Program’s Conservation K9 Team are currently field testi...
How to Call Deer, Including Grunt, Bleat, Snort-Wheeze and More
Переглядів 23 тис.7 місяців тому
White-tailed deer make a wide range of vocalizations. In fact, science identified a dozen different sounds deer make in five main categories, from grunts to bleats to aggressive calls like a snort-wheeze. You can mimic these calls to help call deer in close, including both bucks and does. Kip Adams reviews all the ways you can call in deer, from grunting to rattling to making a snort-wheeze. Ki...

      Very likely. But it also could be because they are very young trees. They usually don't flower (male or female) until they are a few yeas old and growing in full sunlight.

At that point, my plan is to broadcast and aerate oats, ladino clover, and cereal rye into what I'm hoping becomes a real "honey-hole". I would appreciate your thoughts regarding my plan!!!

    With Pig Brig, it’s new to the hogs, or they don’t perceive it as a threat because it gives them the sensation of underbrush when the hogs root under and through the netting (i.e., conditioning mode). The only frantic behavior happens when humans arrive, and the hogs are killed or hauled away, thus unable to learn that Pig Brig is a threat (or if they do, it’s too late for them). It’s the best trap I’ve seen so far!

    This is so relatable to me in so many ways I could’ve never understood prior to my late start at hunting in 2019. I spent my whole life up until 37 with a curiosity toward hunting, but never was ready to bridge the gap and try it until my then 8 year old son asked if he could try it. The moment he shot his first deer on opening day of Missouri rifle season, would forever be the moment that felt as if my eyes were opened for the first time and I would never be the same. Truly one of the happiest moments I’ve ever felt. And the profound realizations and appreciations I’ve had, with and without my kids with me, with every minute spent in the deer woods, just keep building stronger each passing season. I’m forever grateful to have finally found hunting, but even moreso, to now try daily to let it be my avenue to help me leave this place better than I found it.

      The order isn't critical, but it's generally best to get sunlight on the ground first, before you burn. Fire can't produce a pulse of plant growth if there's no sunlight reaching the ground, so if you burn first, you'd need to immediately follow up with forest stand improvement.
