The Annie Creek and Hepler Experimental Range Plots established in 1945 consist of an acre each of Deer Proof, Controlled Browsing and Unfenced at Annie Creek plus an additional Livestock Proof Acre at the Hepler Plots. Deer utilization each...

Although this clipping experiment has not been in operation long enough to produce many conclusions, it appears quite likely that Oregon Grape will disappear from all of the plots within a few years even under a simulated utilization of only 25 per...

In 1945, three one-acre plots were established in the Annie Creek Area. One plot was left as an unfenced control, another was enclosed with a permanent deer-proof fence, and the third was enclosed in a deer-proof fence that could be opened for a...

Briefly stated, these studies attempt to determine the degree of competition between deer and domestic livestock, annual forage production, annual utilization of browse by deer, and use-factors for key food plants.
Results of this experiment have...

This study initiated in 1947 within deer-proof exclosures attempts to determine the effect of use variables upon browse productivity. Within four 100 square foot plots annual growth is clipped from browse species at use intensities of 25%, 50%, 75%...

This job, primarily designed to establish use-factors for key browse plants, has been a constant source of frustration during the last seven years, since the normal production of browse even under complete protection has varied from a minus 60...

South Dakota’s walleye toolbox consists of four regulations designed to diversify walleye fishing opportunities while reducing regulation complexity. The toolbox also includes an experimental regulations category to allow for evaluation of new...

This study presents a number of conclusions dealing with
changes in vigor, production and growth characteristics of 14 browse species as influenced by deer browsing in the Black Hills.

Kinnikinnick cannot stand an annual clipping of even 25 percent of the green portion of the plant. During the same period Oregon grape has been able to maintain production under the 25 percent clip but not under heavier clippings. The data thus...

The important evergreen deer foods, kinnikinnick (Arctostaphylos uva-ursi) and Oregon grape (Odostemon repens) lose production if as little as 25 percent of their total green forage is removed annually. Excessive utilization of Oregon grape only...
