Me and the wife and kids went for a short overnight trip to the Henry Mountains. The deer were everywhere! We saw around 100 bucks the evening and morning we were there. I am not a photographer, but here is some pics I took.

More pics further down...

Wow!! Amazing how that unit has developed. In 95 I had a buffalo tag and in two weeks of hunting hard we probably saw 50 total deer. Once they hit the cats hard with harvest quota and coyote control the deer rebounded.

Very nice pics. Thanks

The unit was closed to 2-legged predators from 1995 through 1999. Fires burned nearly 40,000 acres in the unit in 2003. Since 2006, over $1 million has been spent on habitat projects in the unit. I wouldn't be so quick to attribute the success of the herd to predator control.

I'm sure that helped. We can agree to disagree.

When a herd drops so low predators can depress any recovery.

Is the $1M courtesy of SFW? I would like to see a list of those projects.
