Show How Does Weather Affect Hunting? Does the weather affect wildlife and hunting to an appreciable degree? YES. THE weather is a most important influence on our hunting. First, enough rain and the right conditions are required to populate our woods and fields with wildlife, by giving them vegetation and insect and animal food. Second, weather often determines de-termines when and where bi rds migrate. It can determine de-termine where native animals and birds are to be found during the hunting season- in heavy, protected areas, or out in the open, so to speak. WHAT SOME people don't realize is that severe weather kills game, as well as people. A severe winter following a dry summer is hardest on many forms of wildlife. |
