Clinton News-Record, 1985-07-24, Page 201 r • Li. 4eetve moose hunt The results of the moose draw have been mailed out, and if you haven't received notification yet, chances are you weren't drawn. Only successful applicants are being notified. Over 36,500 bull and cow tags were issued this year, and apparently in some Wildlife Management Units, everyone who applied got one. The ratio was approximately three bull tags to every cow tag. There was a bet- ter than even chance of being drawn, but if you weren't lucky, you can, of course, still hunt for calf moose. The selective moose hunt is starting to show some encouraging results. The main objective for the draw is to double the pro- vince's moose population to 160,900•animals by the year 2,000., As a result of the draw, the population is increasing, and the ratio of bulls to cows is approaching its ideal level. If anyone has any questions about the moose harvest, full information can be obtained from the Wingham office. Deer applications Applications for the controlled deer hunt in Huron County will be available on August 1. Anyone wishing to hunt deer in the county will have to apply for the draw. Hunters can NOT hunt bucks only in the southern part of the province without a validation sticker. The only way to get a sticker is to be drawn from the applicants, and that sticker is good for any deer. Remember, however, that party shooting is not allowed in controlled hunts. You can- not shoot a deer for another member of your party. Applications for the controlled hunt must be received by the Wingham Office by IiatursiilY Speaking By Steve Cooke August 30. That means it must actually be in their hands by that date. If you wait until the 30th to mail it out, you'll be out of luck. Applications will be available at the Wingham Office. The best idea is to pick one up and return it in person to ensure it's there on time. Take the time to read the accompa- nying instructions carefully, and don't forget to send in the mandatory report by the deadline. If you fail to send in the reportf you will be automatically excluded from the .hunt the following year. +++ . And for those who hunt deer up north, time is running out for the antlerless draw. Applications ust be in Ministry of Natural, Resources hands by the end of this month, so if you don't get it done this week, chances are you'll miss out. If you've left it this long already, I'd suggest spending the extra money to send it off by registered mail, or if time is really tight by priority post. The application torms are attached to the licence, so you must purchase •a licence before you can apply. • It is my understanding that party hunting is permitted in the northern areas, - But for BUCKS only. If someone in your party has an antlerless tag, then only that person is allowed to take an antlerless deer. Chet.-- the hemothe hunting summary regulations closely, however, because as I said, this is only my understanding. Leopard hunting On the international scene, the Convention on International Trade of Endangered Species (CITES) has reorganized the Leopard classification. Legally taken skins can now be imported from countries which have a quota as long as they are properly documented. This is a real boon to some African countries. In some areas, like Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe, leopards were becoming a real problem., Under their protected status, populations were increasing, creating pro- blems with livestock and people. Now, these countries can control problem animals and pick up some much needed cash from the tourist industry as a result of hunts for them. The watchdog mechanism is in place to prevent over exploitation of this resource and it's a real treat to realize that people are using brain power and reasoning instead of emotion to deal with situations such as this. ® Clinton Raceway to hold hospital benefit Sunday • CLINTON - The Third Annual Hospital Day coming up July 28 at Clinton Raceway is expected to be an outstanding success, breaking last year's attendance and handle records by a substantial amount, organizers of the event have predicted. Highlights of the day are the popular drivers' contest, featuring 10 of Ontario's top harness drivers, and the big beef barbecue, held in the Clinton Arena after the races. The day's feature race will be the Fleming Feed Mill Invitation Pace for a purse of $3,000. Last year, a' record 1,600 fans bet more than $85,000 at the mutuel windows before 400 hungry race -goers sat down tb a roast beef dinner prepared by Seaforth's master chef, Ron Williamson. The yearly event has become so popular that Dresden raceway, which also goes Sundays, now holds a similar promotion, patterned after Clinton's success. Proceeds from the day will be donated to the Clinton Public Hospital Building: Fund for the second year in a row. In 1984, Raceway Committee member handed over a cheque for more than $3,000 to Dan Steyn, Clinton Hospital Administrator, after the event. Volunteers from the hospital and Board of Governors will again help prepare and serve the barbecue. The day's drivers traditionally donate their percentages to the Hospital Fund, and mutuel manager Toby Rainey has confirm- ed that she will donate a,day's wages. She will also pass the'hat among senior raceway staff in a chall1enge to do likewise.
