Winter's Impact On Idaho's Wildlife | KMVT Southern Idaho | LOCAL
Last winter wasn't especially tough in most of Idaho.
But in some cases, cold weather lasted longer than usual - which put an additional drain on the body fat that deer, elk and moose live off of during the winter months.
Very few calves survived the snows - and the animals that did make it through the winter are in poor condition.

Troweill says, "Don't expect to see many young animals after a tough winter like this. But on the other hand, with good management, the animals will bounce back. And we'll be back to abundant hunting seasons here very shortly."

Where is your marketing savvy? Can you not come up with a cute, emaciated deer shivering in the cold with a tear in its eye standing over its malnourished, dying doe?
Get with it people! Fight fire with fire!
