Significance of the 1968 deer kill in upstate New York
PAUL KELSEY analyzes deer kill records in Region 3, comparing 1968 figures with 1955 peaks. He argues that per square mile density, not raw totals, reveals population pressure, warns of potential starvation in Broome, Chenango, Cortland, Tioga, Tompkins and southern Madison counties, and calls for a sustained target buck kill around 2.5 per square mile with one half as many adult does.
