that all those little items which !

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. ~S~c~c~S~c~c~c~r~c~cvc
1t is strange, but memories anu
estimates of the size of big game
almost always are in the same di
rection-exaggeration. Not tha
sportsmen are chronic liars. It's
simply that we all have bit Of
the artistic urge that makes u
want to add touch of color here
and there to make interesting
things even more so.
This kind of artistic decoration
going on gener \tion after genera
ton, has made the job of sorting
fact from fiction in big-game re-
cords nearly as tough as strain
ing frog spit out of frog pond
Bigness in big game is gener-
ally listed in either of two ways:
by live or dressed weight. Live
weight really means dead weight.
with entrails and other parts in
place. And dressed weight means
that the critter was undressed of
such parts.
Various formulas have been de
vised for estimating the approx
innate live weights of dressed
specimens or of figuring the dress
ed weights of undresScd' game
For deer, it has commonly been
calculated that one4fifth of the
live weight is lost in dressing
And conversely, you add about
one-fourth of the dressed weigh
to get a rough idea of the beasts
heft when alive and kicking
Such schemes, however, are far
from exact, even when adapted te
particular species. For one thing,
as pointed out by biologist Alex
ander D. Martin in an article ir
Sport Afield magazine, the amount
of food in an animals stomach
varies a good deal from time to
time, and this bars the way to any
accurate method of translating
one kind of weight expression
into the other.
An interesting thing about deer
is the way their size tapers off as
you go south from Canada. There
are some 20 different kinds of
deer in this country and most of
them differ in stature and aver
age weight. While northern white
tails average about 1861 pounds
(big bucks, sometimes going as
high as 400 pounds or higher.
their relatives in the south gene
rally run considerably smaller
The nearly extinct Key deer of
Florida weighs from about 40 to
rs pounds. The Coues, Or Sonora,
deer of the southwest averages
about rs pounds, and in Mexico
there are varieties that weigh less
than 40 pounds. Going still far
ther south, down to the Andes
Mountains in Chile, there's a mid
get species only about foot high,
called the pudu. Makes one won
der-is big game still big game
when it's that small?
