It just makes simple daily activities, such as shopping or working, an uncomfortable chore, he adds. You can often relieve the leg discomfort arising from varicose veins by elevating the legs above the level of the heart while lying flat. In addition, regular support stockings may offer some relief from the aching, since they restrict or prevent the overstretching of the veins that causes the Paunsaugunt Plateau is home for deer herd landowners receive a number of hunting permits that they may sell in return for allowing a regulated number of public hunters on their property. Hunters out for trophy-siz- e animals have offered landowners with Posted Hunting Units in the Paunsaugunt Plateau up to $10,000 for a v hunt. In addition to collecting dollars from eager hunters, Messmer believes landowners could benefit from the ecotourism market, attracting people who would pay to use the land and wildlife for an outdoor experience armed with cameras and binoculars.

Last summer, 12 deer were fitted with radio collars that have allowed the researchers to track them from aircraft and on the ground as they moved south in late fall. In February, 36 more animals were collared and each one has been tracked twice weekly this spring. Until now little or no data existed to back up the notion that the herd migrated into Arizona. Some believed that the deer wintering on the Buckskin Mountains of Northern Arizona had traveled north from the Kiabab Forest, rather than south from Utah. discover corridor, Tracking the animals this spring has shown that near the end of the migration period all but one of the collared animals had moved back to Utah, with a heavy concentration of animals around Alton. , The concentration of animals is good news to landowners who manage posted hunting units in the area, and could be a payoff for land management practices they have adopted that create inviting habitat for livestock and wildlife. The Alton unit actively manages for the hunting unit. They plan so that water developments and the forage vegetation they plant benefit livestock and wildlife, Messmer said. The question of whether the deer are primarily residents of Utah or Arizona is just one question that needs to be answered. Highway 89 runs through the migration area and is a big contributor to deer mortality. Andalex Resources, Inc. is proposing construction of a new coal mine near Big Water, Utah, adding huge coal trucks to traffic on the highway about every 10 minutes. Andalex is supporting the research due to the company's concern about potential impact on the herd. In addition, the Utah Department of Transportation projects traffic volume on that section of Highway 89 will have increased by 60 percent by the year 2015. The radio collars should allow researchers to track the deer for about three years, long enough to define the timing, duration, and routes of migration. If it appears the deer cross the highway primarily in a few isolated spots and for just few days each season, road projects and warnings to drivers could help reduce the number of collisions. Data the team gathers will be paired with satellite images of the area, maps of hunting unit boundaries, elevation maps, and information about habitat and land use. The information will help piece together why the deer prefer different ranges in different seasons, define migration corridors, and what forces alter the size and composition of the herd. Animal populations are extremely dynamic, Klimack said. Some of the data will change year to year. But we should get a good picture of where this herd lives and what affects it.
