Dog s running-iiailarge
pose threat to deer herd
Locarconservation officers are urging dog
owners not to allow their pets to run at large
this winter, in an attempt to protect the local/
deer herd.
The deer, already hard-pressed by the
deep snow, are especially vulnerable 'to
dogs, whether singly or in packs, and any
harassment of the deer, even if the dogs fail
to catch them, can mean the difference
between life and death.
One such killing occurred recently on the
Maitland River. near Whitechurch, where a
deer under attack by two dogs broke its leg
trying to escape and had to be destroyed,
reported Bob Pegg, a conservation officer
for the Wingham district.
In response to a weekend complaint about
dogs chasing deer, Mr. Pegg went out
Monday and found fresh dog tracks leading
into an area where deer yard up during the
inter.
After going down the road a bit further, he
_ _ _ ,
could hear dogs yapping, he reported, and
discovered the two dogs hada deer cornered
out on the ice on the river and were in the
process of dragging it down. •
The dogs, mongrels,had no tags or collars
and matehe
d.the description of dogs which
had been worrying livestock in the area, Mr.
Pegg said. As soon as they saw him, they
high -tailed it in opposite directions, but he
was able to bring them both down and
destroy them.
The deer at first did not appear to be badly

tne deer should come through all right in
spite of the' snow and extreme cold, Mr.
Pegg said. They are yarded up for shelter
and there are enough twigs and buds to see
them through the worst part of the winter.
However when they are yarded up, the,
dem are also vulnerable to harassment by
-dogs and if they. are harassed enough they
are forced to jji�ve and that creates
problems. Among other things, the deep
snow coming so early in the winter has kept
the rivers from freezing completely, making
it more difficult for the deer to move.
They also are at a disadvantage trying to
move through the deep snow, their sharp
hooves breaking through the crust while a
dog can run along on top.
He said the Ministry of Natural Resources
is trying to emphasize the importance of
keeping dogs under control. It is an offence
to allow dogs to run at large during the
closed season for deer, he noted, and the
owner can be fined. Officers also are
authorized to destroy any dogs harassing
deer or livestock, although they prefer to do
so only as a last resort.
Officers would appreciate a call from
anyone who sees dogs running deer, at 357-
3131, during office hours or 1-800-265-3003
after 5 p.m. or on weekends. A caller may
remain anonymous if desired.
The Ministry estimates there are between
3,900 and 5,200 deer in the Wingham district,
encompassing Huron and parts of Bruce and
Perth counties. Last fall was the fourth year
for a controlled hunt hi Huron and the deer
population is stable and in good shape, of-
ficers reported. •
