Tough winter in 59 as well. We've been out packing trails with the snowmobile through the cedars but noticed an abundance of coyote tracks since we started doing that. I hope we're not doing more harm than good making it easier for the coyotes to get around! I wonder if the Ministry or OFAH monitor the severity and will suggest emergency feeding programs.
We have coyotes in our yard weekly looking for a meal. Friggin things are like rats in NYC, there everywhere around us.
I am and will continue to be a strong supporter of the OFAH, but after seeing what the winters have done to the herd and no emergency feeding occured, I honestly don't know what it would take to trigger the DeerSave Program.Quote:

I’m headed up to Restoule this weekend. I was planning on going for bunnies. With the snow being that deep it’s not going to happen. Have to do some walleye fishing on Commanda. Less work lol
I was in Restoule 2 weekends ago and could not believe how deep the snow was. Almost impossible to move around in the bush.Quote:
