In today's crazy world I wouldn't be surprised if the deer were actually sporting an ear gauge and an iPod. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinneR ★ Posted May 22, 2021 Share #4 Posted May 22, 2021 A friend of mine collars all kinds of wildlife here. Moose, elk, sheep, wolves. She let help with the sheep once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MickinMD ★ Posted May 22, 2021 Share #11 Posted May 22, 2021 I imagine they tag one or two from selected herds so they can study their range, diets, etc. I know they do that in Maryland, but I haven't noticed tags or collars on any of the many white tails in the parks where I walk - they know they're safe in the no-hunting park and are used to Jake and me to the point where they briefly look up when we walk by then quickly return to grazing.

My dog is hit or miss on what she will chase. A rabbit? Yep. A squirrel? No way. A deer? Yes. A raccoon? Yes. Ducks? Yes. Geese? Usually. Cats? No chase, but definitely interest.
