Gearing up for the Firearm deer season? Or just interested in learning more about Michigan’s state mammal? Join Holly Vaughn from the DNR Wildlife Division for a fun and interactive lesson about the basic biology of white-tailed deer and the finer points of deer aging. We’ll talk a little bit about chronic wasting disease and bovine tuberculosis and how you can help the DNR fight these insidious diseases. Finally, we’ll teach you how to age your own harvested deer and we’ll even do a practice deer aging “test”.
