Wildlife increasing on Florida National Forests
The U S Forest Service census shows rising wildlife on Florida and southern forests due to scientific management and cooperation with Florida agencies and sportsmen. Deer numbers lead gains with Ocala National Forest housing the largest southern herd, while other species including alligators, black bears, raccoon, mink, otter, and various furbearers also show increases. Public sports use rose with 15 200 man days hunting big game, 11 000 small game, and 41 000 days fishing in 1940.
