How could we artificially influence natural selection???.....Let’s go back to the hypothetical example I used where we are going to take 25 does from Bankhead and transplant them into the middle of the Macon Co green area…….Now what would happen if next year I went in and heavily trapped coyotes in May and June around my release area just ahead of the early fawn drop and then I allowed the coyotes to fill back in over the next two months before the late fawns were dropped in late Aug early Sept……I just tilted the scales heavily in favor in the early droppers…..Now lets do that for the next five years……….ten years…….What would happen?
I would think you'd want blast every doe you ran across for 5 years on a wide spread level, then stock and use that strategy if your intent was to make a major shift. Otherwise, you'd end up with a much less defined rut... which is what some places seem to deal with already..... it's a rabbit hole of speculation man.
