Coast Deer Study.
Jordan River, V.I. [Vancouver Island], B.C. [British Columbia] Oct. [October] 9. 1938.
Today hiked about 6 miles along
the west coast trail. In this
distance we encountered the
tracks of 3 different deer.
Victoria, B.C. [British Columbia] Oct [October] 11, 1938.
Bruce Cash reports 40% damage
to F. Reid's turnip crop at Pedder
Bay. Strawberry + raspberry plant
sweet pea + gladiolus flowers +
leaves also eaten. Mangles [Mangels]
heavily damaged.
Three deer spike buck + young + old
does in park enclosure. Offered
these Garry Oak acorns + leaves,
also leaves + fruit of snow
berry. All these were eaten
avidly with little preference
evinced. They preferred the
fruit of snowberry to the
leaves of the same plant.
The buck was definitely
the dominant individual and
by horning drove the others
away from food he coveted.
A sideways thrust in the
ribs seemed to be his favourite
tactic but occassionally [occasionally] he
would but the does in the head
