p tlae fawn, No. 11' had grown so
much that the t of adjustment was
reached, and it released itself as it was
designed to do.. In just 36 days, the fawn
had grown to three or four tithes its
original size and has the distinction of be -
.g the only fawn successfully tagged in
Ontario this year. Needless to say, the
staff at the Winghani Ministry of Natural
Resources (MNR) are delighted.
While information from this one pro -
gam cannot be used to form any firm con-
clusions, some interesting patterns were
revealed.
For the full time the transmitter was
operating, a schedule of checks was done
to monitor movement, and this included
one 48 hour tracking session. During that
time, the biologists learned a lot about doe -
fawn travel patterns.
One of the most interesting aspects that
Ken Maronets reported was the extensive
use of small ,woodlots, swales and patches
of brush. According to Ken, the pair would
move into an area, use it for a short time,
and then move, on. Total straight line
movement was probably lessV than 2 km.,
but the actual path taken was considerably
more.
"It shows, however. just how ;--7,-4- +
!aurally Speaking
even a small patch of brush can be," Ken
said, "especially in an agricultural area.
The pair used these areas extensively."
The most important part of the research,
however, might still come.,If a hunter bags
a deer with ear tags, he should make a
special effort to take it to a MNR check-
point for examination. By comparing
before and after measurements, a true pic-
ture of the deer's growth record can be ob-
tained, and could be used for management
studies in the future.
In this case, it's a story with a happy en-
ding. The fawn is fine, and some good
research has been done, but remember if
you find a young animal in the woods,
leave it alone.

A Ballplayers Prayer
Lord, give me the strength to hit that ball, Stay with me Lord,
And if I should, don't let me fall. 'Cause this one out we can't afford.
Then let me zoom, like a flying bird,
Right down the line, and on past third.
Then let me slide with foot out -thrust;
Across home plate, through swirling dust.
But first of all, dear Lord 1 pray
Just tell the coach to let me play.
Help me to pick the one that's right;
Then let me knock it way out of sight.
Then help me run, with deer -like grace,
Don't letme slip, but tag first base.
Then on to second,
