Photo by Al Miller 74 Daectet waft This Bulletin provides a summary of the information obtained from a five percent sample of hunters who reported their 1969 hunting experiences. In addition to the usual tabulation of hunter reports by game management units, the yield of animals and recreation is also summarized by the 14 new Administrative Districts that are to be used as a base for coordinated planning. The Game Commission desires to present information about the fish and wildlife resources in a manner that will be useful to all agencies and people who will be engaged in the planning process. The development of a common data base for each of the Administrative Districts and the State of Oregon can be a great aid to the Game Commission in planning programs for the future. Fish and wildlife production are seldom the primary uses of land or water. The welfare of those resources is dependent upon the plans and programs of primary land and water users. For this reason knowledge of planned future uses of land and water for all purposes is an essential prerequisite for long-range planning by this department. -John McKean OREGON ADMINISTRATIVE DISTRICTS SUMMARY OF 1969 DEER AND ELK SEASON HARVEST Admini- Counties DEER strative In * District District Numbers Days Harvest Numbers ELI( Days Harvest 1 Clatsop, Tillamook 8,340 45,630 1,100 9,470 43, Clackamas, Columbia, Multnomah, Washington 7,510 41,090 2, , Marion, Polk, Yamhill 7,030 37,110 3, Benton, Lincoln, Linn 12,090 64,140 6, , Lane 15,030 83,930 6,520 1,510 6, Douglas 12,720 77,410 5,290 2,570 10, Coos, Curry 6,610 40,820 1,890 4,040 19, Jackson, Josephine 12,970 82,870 4, , Hood River, Sherman, Wasco 6,930 31,470 1, , Deschutes, Crook, Jefferson 29, ,890 8, , II Klamath, Lake 37, ,910 11, Gilliam, Grant, Morrow, Wheeler, Umatilla 47, ,190 20,340 16, ,640 2, Wallowa, Baker, Union 35, ,240 20,500 27, ,430 4, Harney, Malheur 15,680 71,200 7, , GENERAL SEASON TOTALS 255,200 1,321,900 GRAND TOTALS **264,900 1,492, ,500 66, ,940 9,918 General season.

3 1969 BIG GAME HARVEST Big game hunters in Oregon experienced a surprisingly successful 1969 season. The 349,500 licensed hunters who enjoyed 1,920,000 days of recreation pursuing big game were rewarded with a harvest of 101,500 deer, 9,918 elk, 440 antelope, 3,600 bear and 4 big-,- horn sheep. The 1969 hunting season followed the most severe winter on big game animals in half a century. Game Commission biologists found winter losses on the black-tailed deer ranges of western Oregon and some of the mule deer ranges of eastern Oregon to be the heaviest ever observed. In some areas up to 50 percent of the deer were lost. The outlook for the '69 deer season was not optimistic. For the first time since 1952 antlerless black-tailed deer were totally protected during the general deer season. It was known that all yearling bucks and 66 percent of the adult bucks perished in one intensively observed black-tailed deer herd. Thus, the 1969 western Oregon deer season was also shortened 7 days. Excellent hunting weather favored deer hunters throughout the season. Elk hunters were not as fortunate. Mild weather prevailed through much of the Rocky Mountain elk season. Elk also suffered winter losses in western Oregon. However, approximately the same number of elk hunters in 1969 reported taking 500 more elk than were harvested in DEER SEASON The general deer season opened on October 4 and closed on October 22 in eastern Oregon and on October 26 in GAME BULLETIN western Oregon. The extended deer season in western Oregon ran only 11 days and the popular Polk-Willamette Area was not opened. Only six permit deer seasons were held and permit holders were required to use their general deer tag on these seasons. There was no opportunity for a hunter to harvest more than one deer in During all deer seasons 264,900 hunters enjoyed 1,492,690 days of recreation harvesting 101,500 deer. The 96,560 black-tailed deer hunters spent 654,900 days afield to take 32,430 blacktails. The 168,340 mule deer hunters were afield 837,790 days to take 69,070 mule deer. Bucks totaled 73,510. Overall hunter success was just over 38 percent. There were 20,300 fewer deer hunters than in Despite the greatly reduced buck crop available in western Oregon, 20 percent fewer general season hunters (87,700) took 49 percent (19,600) as many blacktail bucks as were taken in 1968 during the general season. The 167,470 general season mule deer hunters harvested 67,760 deer. There were 18,450 fewer antlerless mule deer permits issued in 1969 and 17,230 fewer mule deer were harvested. by M. E. Cummings Chief Biologist, Big Game Management The 46,400 hunters possessing antlerless deer permits harvested approximately 15,000 antlerless animals. s during the early, extended, late and archery seasons bagged 14,140 additional deer. ELK SEASON The 66,000 elk hunters in 1969 numbered just 100 more than in They spent 381,940 days hunting to take 9,918 elk. This was 508 over the number harvested last year. Yearling Rocky Mountain bull elk provided the increased take. Yearling bulls jumped from 60 to 70 percent of the bulls taken. The total harvest consisted of 7,800 bulls and 2,118 antlerless elk. Overall hunter success raised to 15 percent. s were required to make a choice of hunting either Roosevelt or Rocky Mountain elk. Elk tag sales fell from 68,630 in 1968 to 66,300 reflecting the increase in price from $7.50 to $10. Roosevelt elk season opened November 15 and extended through November 23, a reduction of 3 days from Despite the shorter season and publicized elk winter losses only 600 fewer hunters chose to hunt Roosevelt elk. These 19,700 persons hunted 87,870 days and reported taking 2,000 bulls compared with 2,990 taken in success dropped from 16 percent in 1968 to 10 percent in Forty-eight participants in the two Roosevelt elk permit seasons took an additional 38 antlerless elk to bring the total number of Roosevelt elk harvested to 2,038.

7 HARVEST (continued) Commission cancelled the scheduled spring archery season when it became apparent the severe winter conditions would make that season unnecessary. Rocky Mountain elk season ran from November 1 through November 19. For the second year in the southeast area the bag limit was one elk from November 1 through November 14 and one bull elk from November 15 through November 19. Rocky Mountain elk hunters increased slightly from 45,600 in 1968 to 46,300 but were well below the 48,400 hunters in They hunted 294,070 days to harvest 7,880 elk. This was 1,730 more Rocky Mountain elk than was taken in The success for these hunters jumped from 13 to 17 percent. The Rocky Mountain elk harvest consisted of 5,800 bulls and 2,080 antlerless animals. In the southeast area where any elk has been legal for several years, 674 bulls and 293 antlerless Rocky Mountain elk were taken by 4,360 hunters. On the Rocky Mountain area permit seasons, hunters had varying success. At Troy 150 hunters bagged 27 antlerless elk; 224 Elkhorn Area hunters took 82 antlerless animals; and on the Mill Creek Watershed 71 hunters harvested 18 bulls and 29 antlerless elk. ANTELOPE Antelope tags were increased from 785 in 1968 to 840 in s enjoyed weather conditions favorable for hunting but found antelope widely distributed and difficult to locate. Reporting hunters were 57 percent successful, indicating a harvest of 440 antelope. BIGHORN SHEEP Six sheep tags were issued, three for the Hart Mountain area and three for Steens Mountain. Four trophy rams ranging from 5 to 11 years old (2 from each area) were taken by the six hunters. During the past 4 seasons 15 trophy sheep have been harvested. BEAR The 10,400 black bear hunters reported taking just over 3,600 bear. The Siskiyou National Forest in southwestern Oregon was added to the areas where bear is classified as a game animal. For the first time a season bag limit of one bear was established. BOW HUNTING About 10,800 archers took 640 deer and 64 elk. Archery regulations were also more restrictive in 1969 as a result of severe winter conditions and fewer animals were harvested. There was no open season in 1969 on mountain goats or cougar. Although the outlook for the 1969 season was not optimistic, hunters did have a reasonably good season. Weather conditions were generally favorable and hunters rose to the challenge by hunting just a little harder. Severe winter losses usually affect hunting seasons for two years, but if Oregon hunters in 1970 again hunt just a little harder they should enjoy another favorable season.

8 BIRD SHOOTERS HAVE GOOD YEAR Upland game bird and waterfowl hunters wound up the 1969 season with a total of more than 1,533,300 game birds of all species for one of the better seasons enjoyed in a number of years. This is the kill figure provided by hunters in the annual questionnaire survey recently completed by the Game Commission. Almost 175,700 shotgun enthusiasts took to the fields last year for upland game birds and reported bagging around 900,700 birds, an increase of almost 40,000 from the take of Chukar hunters found fine shooting, taking more than 160,000 of these challenging targets, an increase of almost 70,000 birds from the 1968 season. The Waterfowl Season Excellent Final hunting results at the Sauvie Island public shooting area show that hunters took just over 22,100 waterfowl, mostly ducks, in the 44 days of shooting on the island. Almost 11,150 nimrods checked into the area and enjoyed a success ratio of about two birds per man. In comparison, 9,900 hunters took 13,700 waterfowl during the same number of shooting days in Summer Lake registered a rise in both the number of hunters gunning the area and the take of ducks and geese. At this popular public shooting area more than 8,000 hunters checked through the station with well over 13,- 900 birds. The goose kill, mostly snows, climbed from about 1,800 taken in 1968 to more than 6,400 the past season, while the take of ducks increased from 6,800 birds to 7,300. Although Warner Valley is an excellent waterfowl gunning area, it number of doves, pigeons, and grouse compared favorably with the previous season. Pheasant hunters enjoyed a fair hunt last fall, taking just a few more birds than they did in Quail gunners found the going tough as evidenced by a drop in the bag by almost 43,000 birds from the previous year. success on quail was expected to be down considerably last fall as a result of the previous severe winter which hit quail populations hard. Waterfowl hunters reported one of the best seasons in a number of years, increasing their take by well over 100,000 birds from the previous season. s took over 568,900 ducks and 63,600 geese for a total bag of over 632,500 birds. draws very few hunters, mainly because of the long distances required to reach the area in addition to the lack of overnight accommodations once they get there. Nevertheless, 186 nimrods made the long trip to Warner and took 262 ducks and geese in 37 days of shooting. The success of these hunters almost doubled from hunter success in At Camas Swale near Eugene, 404 hunters obtained permits during the 18 shooting days scheduled for this area. Checkout cards show a bag of 542 ducks compared with the take of 378 birds by 391 hunters the previous year. Except for frequent hunter checks during the season, complete records are not kept at the Klamath public shooting grounds. Reports by hunters during the season, however, and field checks by Game Commission biologists indicate one of the best gunning years in a long time. Success was especially high on the upper Klamath marshes. GIESLER AWARDED Cal Giesler, hunter safety supervisor for the Game Commission, received the Golden Beaver Award for Conservation Education at the annual convention of the Oregon Division, Izaak Walton League last month. Cal was recognized for the outstanding contributions he has made to the conservation movement in working with young people and school teachers throughout the state. Under his leadership more than 150,000 youngsters have received training in safe gun handling and sportsmanship. He has acted as wildlife counselor at many outdoor schools, teacher conservation workshops, and forest conservation tours. He has visited summer camps and schools throughout the state talking to young people about wildlife conservation. In his spare time, and he rarely has any, he assists in judging 4-H contests and counseling Boy Scouts on conservation and wildlife merit badges. Other award winners and the categories were John Mosser of Portland, Citizen at Large; Wendell Haley of Portland, Waltonian of the Year; Carl Schmadeke of Hillsboro, Professional; and the Northwest Section of the Sunday Oregonian, Communications. The Oregon Division of the Izaak Walton League presents the Golden Beaver awards annually to individuals or organizations who are judged to have made outstanding contributions to conservation in the previous year. 0%1001 os trart "4 SAME CO S.W.
