THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ontario. Thursday. December 3, 1959 9 Increased Number Hunt Licences Sold In I959 By the end of the recent pheasant season, Regulated Town- ships in the Lake Simcoe District had sold approximately 6400 Township Hunting Licenses. This represents an increase of approx- imately 800 over the prevxous year stated Mr. J. S. Dorland of the Fish and Wildlife staff at Maple. _ The main increase was in the Township of Markham with total sales of 1100 Non-Resident Ll- censes in 1959 accounting for some 700 of the total increase‘in the District as compared With 1958. . Data collected by Conservation Officers and Deputy Game War- dens in the field indicated a gen- eral increase in all phases of the hunt with the exception of man- hours of hunting which decreased slightly. This was attributed to the fact that during the present season pheasant hunters pursued the sport in a more leizurely fashion not concentrating activi- ties in one or two day's time as was experienced with the short season previously. ‘ Records show that the 1769 hunters checked by Officers took a total of 780 pheasants - 529 cocks and 251 hens. Average showed hunter's success of .44 pheasants per man taking 5.1 man-hours hunting per bird, a slight increase over last year. In the Township of Whitchurch where 1833 pheasants had been leg-banded previously and re- leased within the Municipality the Department of Lands and Forests check showed that only 51% of the total harvested this fall were birds bearing leg bands. Hunters enjoyed a much longer season than previously which was considered a definite im- provement but still contended with the problem of three separ- ate opening days within the Dis- trict. During the 16 day open season, the weather was for the n ost part cloudy with occasional precipitation. This may have made it difficult to raise the birds. It was noted that of the 700 separate hunting parties checked, 882 hunted with dogs. BUTTONVILLE NEWS' CORRESPONDENT: Mrs. l'. G. LIA! 8.
