Aerial trend counts showed the buffalo herd numbers were down. Division of Wildlife Resources biologists are currently following the movements of radioed bighorns and did not want these animals harvested this year. The board outlawed the use In of aircraft in hunting, pursuing, harassing or locating wildlife. They also deemed it unlawful to transport hunters, hunting equipment or wildlife unless they are picked up andor delivered to established airports controlled by federal, state, county or mun icipal governments. The sale and trade of heads, horns and antlers is prohibited between August 14 and December 15 by action of the board. Public meetings throughout the state brought comments, pro and con, in regard to nonresident hunting of moose, buffalo, desert bighorn sheep and antelope; however no action was taken on that matter. A proposal to increase fees for these limited species was also presented to the board. Division biologists stressed the action would not be to gain revenue since permits are on a limited basis only, but would be an attempt to limit hunting of these species to the true trophy hunter. However, the board took no action on this measure, either. pitcher. Hitters were led by Francine Porter with 2 home runs in 4 hits.

A report compiled jointly by the Division of Wildlife Re- sources and the Utah Highway Department noted the above facts and many more. The study shows the leading counaccifor dents are Millard, Utah and Beaver, in that order. Most ties fatalities deer-vehic- le occur October, due, probably, to migration of deer from summer to winter range. The deer migration routes often cross majorhigh-way- s. in The next highest accident rate is in June or July. Migration from winter to summer range begins in May and terminates in June and accounts for June collisions. July fatalities are attributed to an increase in highway traffic because of vacationers and weekend travelers. The report showed that in 1970-71,681 deerwere kill1, ed within the highway This figure, right-of-wa- y. how- ever, is minimal, according to Division biologists, because y many deer go beyond the to die after being hit. right-of-wa- What the report does not say is that even though deer killed are often yearlings without many youngsters, times a doe with young may be the victim.
