Episode 076 - Buck Food Plot Use During the Hunting Season
In this episode we visit with Dr. Natasha Ellison to review her findings relative to buck use of food plots during the hunting season.\xa0 How often are bucks visiting food plots pre-rut, peak-rut, and post-rut?\xa0 When are bucks spending more time on food plots?\xa0 How does hunting pressure affect these relationships?\xa0 Natasha is a Mathematical Ecologist and is helping the MSU Deer Lab dig deeper in the buck movement dataset to answer questions about buck behavior relevant to hunters and managers.
