I don't know about other places but I know marshall co has real problems with a lack of fawn cover. we have tons of pastureland and really the only decent cove we have in a lot of places is sucession in cutovers at least until the privet comes up and creates a canopy so thick nothing grows under it. failing fawn cover and a VERY robust coyote population drive our numbers down baddddd. im getting to the point where I don't get pics of fawns and fewer deer period. get pics of lots coyotes an bobcats occasionally ill get a pic of a yote totin a leg or a piece of a fawn. nobody gives a crap about it around here tho. they jus keep growin chickens an pourin the litter to tha pastures. we got some mighty fine lookin cows tho an lotsa purty chicken houses.
