i dont think its an over population problem cause we use our dmap damage tags every year and we also take alot of does with our regular tags and i bring people out to take care of does and have been for about 5 years hard and heavy now and the ratio on the farm seems to be good but alot of weird things have been going on this year such as this is the first year weve had coyotes and bears and we have already lost 6 calves now this year to the yotes. and we have already killed 14 this year. but these fawns are tiny tiny guys. they still have the baby hair. real thick and bushy. it beats all ive seen. but last night while on yote patrol we had about 60 deer under the lights in about 4 hours. it was crazy. and from what we could tell the ration was pretty good if i were to guess id say it was like 5 to 1 which is incredible for fauqier county considering ive heard of the average being like 15 to 1. i dont know what to say. weird stuff goin on
