Description: If you spook your target buck, will he leave and never come back? Today we answer that question with Dr. Gino D'Angelo of the University of Georgia!Dr. D'Angelo is a professor of Deer Ecology & Managment at Warnell School of Forestry and Natural Resources at University of Georgia. Throughout his tenure he has been a part of many studies related to whitetail deer, including GPS collar studies across the southeast! In this episode we dive into a question any deer hunter hasx wondered - what happens when you spook a buck? Does he leave the area completely? Will he immediately circle back? Subjects include:- The decline of whitetail deer in the southern Appalachian mountains- Why cutting timber means more deer- Hunting pressure in the mountains vs low country- how did deer react to heavy dog hunting pressure in one of Dr. D'Angelo's studies?- How long does it take a buck to return to an area after being spooked by a hunter?- How much pressure does it take for a deer to abandon their home range?- How far does a deer run when it is spooked?and a lot more!
