Manitoulin Streams is always happy to have an educational table at the Assiginack Deer Show. Not only is it important to continue educating on current restoration activities, it's also a great opportunity to talk about our Deer Save program to locals. Many are still not aware that we keep a land owners listing for those wanting to participate in deer management activities in the winter, allowing volunteers access to break trails and feed if necessary.
We can't dictate what conditions winter will bring this year, we do know that the deer herd suffered somewhat from last winter, and the drought weather this summer is not positive for the health of the deer heading into what could be another harsh winter for 2018/19.
We are hopeful that conditions will continue to improve, but are grateful for the support and funding made available should we face emergency efforts needed. Anyone wanting to sign up to assist this winter can call Sue at 705-859-1653 to have their name placed on the volunteer list. Thank you to Jackie White and the Assiginack Township team for hosting a great event!
