Yikes Lucan,
Floods can have devastating effects. We had a really bad flood in my area about ayear ago and as a result, some of the best hunting land was worthless that fall. Most everything that was in bottom land looked like it got hit by a hurricane. |
RE: Floods....hard on wildlife......
Yeah, I would say that could be a problem. Hopefully the animals headed to higher ground to do their procreating.;) Good luck with a bad situation.

We got flooded here in Southwest Wisconsin 5 weeks ago and it took a toll on our fields. Half our 600 acres were underwater. It was a hell of a time to try and get it cleaned up. I hope your not to mad;)

We had major flooding this spring, closed many roads and put thousands upon thosandsof bottomland hardwood and farmland acres under water for 2 to 3 months. It was like a once every 50 year flood kinda deal. I got out where its dried up some and I saw a ton of deer and deer sign everywhere. I was very relieved to say the least, saw a ton of squirels too. They will be fine but they will have to go somewhere until the water goes down. Now, a few weeks ago we did find several turkey eggs that had been washed out of nest. Turkey population may be down some due to that in the next year or so.
