[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5187961, member: 1409"] Certain areas are seasonally (sometimes annually and for more than a year) subject to a "shifting" in local deer herds due to a multitude of reasons. Reasons often include seasonally changing food sources, sometimes annually changing food sources. Acorn crops can be feast or famine from one year to the next; and local farmers can totally change what they plant from one year to the next. Just imagine how it might effect your local deer density if a lot of farmers started planting cotton instead of soybeans in an area you hunt. But food sources are just one piece of this often big puzzle. Has there been a decrease in the area's cover habitat? Such as more woods becoming either more mature, or recently clear-cut? Just saying I don't believe CWD has even been a piece of this puzzle there. But, the biggest piece [I]COULD[/I] be the ongoing higher doe harvests of being in Unit L. [/QUOTE]
