Creator Transcript
  • a poor cone crop forecast the harvest should be heavier as most squirrels will perish anyway. It seems to me that we should be able to forecast the possible future for peak grouse pops. [populations] by learning the winter food in detail. Lampio has found that when there is a prolonged cold spell the squirrels do not feed + it is then that the heaviest losses take place. The main disease is coccidiosis + it spreads rapidly on the years of cone failure. It is believed that the main reason for this spread lies in changed feeding habits. The squirrels turn to ground feeding + use food contaminated with their faeces full of coccidia In years following a heavy spruce cone yield there may be 4 litters per year + the maxima are higher. Obversely in poor years there may only be one litter. Caper [Capercaillie] + Grouse. [underlined] The station has a group of 800 observers that send in replies to questionairres [questionnaires]. These men are interested + take careful observations They are given Suomen Riista free + each year about 15 of them get a week at Evo free Marginalia: Grouse applic. [application]
