Nearly all of the athletes were members of statewide media teams.

Carter, a Division of Wildlife Resources conservation officer, knew what to do. Unfortunately, hed been through this before. Even so, it wasnt easy. The Carters lost a lot of sleep those first few weeks, up every three hours through the night to feed the tiny fawn. Diarrhea, commonly called scours, was a constant problem. Robbed of her mothers milk, Daisy just couldnt adapt to milk supplements.

Unable to forage for herself in her natural habitat, and o trusting of humans, she faced a lifetime of captivity too wild to be a pet, all-to- too tame to fend for herself. Still, Daisy was lucky. Most deer fawns plucked from the wild by humans dont survive. Its a modern wildlife tragedy, especially when a simple understanding of deer habits, and a touch of common sense, could avoid it. In the first few weeks of a fawns life, its often hidden away while mother grazes. Nursing puts a strain on female deer (does). They must feed almost constantly to provide milk for their fawns. Although they may leave for several hours to feed, deer rarely abandon their young. So when a hiker finds a fawn, its a sure bet that the mother is not far away. The common first impression is, oh you poor little thing, out here all alone. But such human emotions can lead to trouble. In nature, it often takes more compassion to leave a young animal alone than to rescue it. Garth Carter knows that. Daisy is a constant reminder of what happens when humans interfere with natures order of things. Theres a reasonably happy ending to this story. Daisy has a new home. Shes the resident mule deer at the Ogden Nature wildlife Center, a Weber the established by refuge County School District. Now, northern Utah school children who venture along the centers fenced nature trails may catch a glimpse of a deer in its natural habitat or at least as close as Daisy will ever get. 127-ac- re Grazing may reduce bugs Through intensive grazing, local ranchers and the Forest Service hope to reduce black grass bug population levels south of Joes Valley Reservoir. The main objective is to utilize the grass plants with livestock before the bugs do. Black grass bugs are normally present in the environment and have been a problem in some western states for many years. Normally, problems only occur in large crested wheatgrass seedings such as the one south of Joes Valley Reservoir in the North Dragon drainage. The insect was first noticed in the seeding in 1982 and has now spread the seeding. It is the last three that thought winters, with relatively mild temperatures and deep snow levels, have contributed to the increased population. The bug forages on the green crested wheatgrass plants, extracting chlorophyll from the plants. This causes reduced growth in the plants and they generally dry out earlier. In throughout cases, larger bug populations can consume as much as 30 to 60 percent of the annual plant growth. In mid June the bug lays its eggs in the green stem of the plants. Over several years the bug can eventually kill the grass plants. The North Dragon reseeding many was first established in 1948 and is 1500 acres in size. This is the first large scale epidemic since 1948. As the insect prefers large areas seeded with crested wheatgrass, they are not expected to spread from the area. (Sfeg giPiiisnsa present effort began in with the main objective being to use the seeding earlier and heavier than normal thus denying the insects a place to forage or to lay eggs. It is now known how many years the process must be repeated to control the bug, but it is expected to take a year or two, after which the plants will be rested so that they can recover from the heavy use. The 1984 Make summer fun but safe Summer is a time of pleasure, a time of picnics and backyard barbecues, .vacations, swimming, parades, popsicles, and playing in the park. Unfortunately for many people, summer is also a time of increased accidents and injuries such as bee stings, boating and bicycle accidents, burns (especially sunburns), contacts with poison ivy, suffocation, cuts, scrapes, bruises, broken bones and drownings. The Accident Prevention Program at the Family Health Services Division, Department of Health, Utah offers Boaters need to use safety some suggestions that will help prevent needless, accidents, and injuries;. j..o bun Children should! not be left unattended in cars while parents run errands. The car interior can reach a very high temperature in a matter of minutes, causing heat stress and dehydration. Children can also set the car in motion by starting the engine, shifting the gears, or removing the emergency brake. In addition, unattended children are easy targets for kidnap attempts. Unsupervised play of young children in or near water, even in a shallow pool, should be prevented. Make sure backyard playground equipment is safe and sturdy and not positioned ovfer hard surfaces. Avoid prolonged exposure to the sun. Wear a sunscreen when for more than a few out-of-doo- rs minutes. Infants and young children are especially sensitive J;o the suns rays, so a sunscreen for them is essential. Children should also be given plenty of liquids while playing outside in weather hot to avoid dehydration. Be aware of the poisonous plants in the yard and neighborhood and in the house. Teach children the dangers of contact with these plants. Remove the doors from old, abandoned refrigerators or freezers, or lock the doors shut with a padlock and chain. Become familiar with and follow the rules of bicycling and boating safety, and teach them to your children. (Remember, the proper way to bicycle is to ride with the flow of traffic, not against it.)
