One of the programs at Wood Magic is the White-tailed Deer School Enrichment Program. Maybe your class could go to the fair. Ask your teacher. It consists of a freestanding display and lesson plan materials that can be used in school classrooms and in outside laboratories. White-tailed deer are a natural resource we have in Mississippi, just like forest products are an important natural resource.
Many people like to view or hunt deer.
Deer can be managed successfully along with forests. They live in forests and eat foods that are found in forested areas. The forest landowners and farmers who own land manage deer by allowing hunting clubs to protect and manage deer, harvest deer for recreational purposes, and plant food plots to feed deer. Many companies that own forest land hire wildlife biologists to help the deer herd. Foresters help manage deer habitat when they prescribed burn under pine trees.
