The area in- 1 cluded much of Simcoe County, the Townships of North Gwil- limbury and Georgina in York County, and Scott, Uxbridge & Pickering Townships in Ontario County. Further data from indivdual hunters is being ob- tained in final compilation of success figures. Approximately 1200 hunters were contacted by the Depart- 'ment's Fish and Widlife staff during the hunt. Conservation officers recored names and ad-. dresses, checked and aged deer and obtained data on the actual number of hours hunting. Ap- proximately 200 deer were ex- amined." This total-will be far{ below the total count, since some of the hunters were check- on the opening day only. Minesing Swamp in Simcoe: County, was again one of the favourite spots where the har- vest was about the same as in 1966, with approximately 250 hunters "taking part. Deer were also abundant in Pickering and Uxbridge Town- ships where an open season was held for the first time in many years. Several hunters check ed in Uxbridge Township Nov. 7th reported that they had seen as many as 12 deer during the | first three hours of the hunt. One party checked near the boundary of Uxbridge County Forest, had their limit of deer by 9.830 am. on opening day, according to Conservation Offi- | cer Ben Smith, TO HEAR . . . . DR. J.
