An Analysis Of Howling Response Parameters Useful For Wolf Pack Censusing, Fred H. Harrington, L. David Mech

USGS Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center

Gray wolves (Canis lupus) were studied from April 1972 through April 1974 in National Forest in northeastern Minnesota by radio-tracking and simulated howling. Based during 217 of 456 howling sessions, the following recommendations were derived for using howling as a census technique: (1) the best times of day are dusk and night; (2) July, August, and are the best months; (3) precipitation and winds greater than 12 km/hour should be avoided; (of 5 single howls should be used, alternating "flat" and "breaking" howls; (5) trials should 3 times at about 2-minute intervals with the first trial at lower …

Nansemond River, Study Of Leased Oyster Grounds In The Vicinity Of The Mills E. Godwin Jr. Bridge (After Construction), Paul C. Kendall, Dexter S. Haven, James R. Whitcomb

Reports

Leased grounds were studied in the vicinity of the newly constructed Mills E. Godwin Jr, Bridge across the Nansemond River during April and May 1982 to determine if any significant changes had occurred in oyster density or bottom topography since an earlier study made in 1979 (prior to construction).

Oyster distribution outside the right-of-way in 1982 was essentially the same as in 1979. However two dug channels were seen in shallow water in the right-of-way: one was downriver of the present bridge; the second was at or near the site of the old bridge (which has been removed).

Some Variations In Distribution Of Fishes In Large Mainstream Reservoirs Associated With Artificial Cover, Donald W. Johnson, Elizabeth M. Choinski

KWRRI Research Reports

The influence of artificial cover (brush piles) on fish populations in Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley was studied. Mature and larval fishes were collected from deep and shallow sites with and without cover in a bay of each lake. Highest densities of mature crappie, bass, and sauger were found adjacent to deep attractors, while larval crappie and minnows were most concentrated at shallow brush piles. Shad (both adult and larvae) were not congregated at attractor sites. Information gathered supports the continuation of artificial cover installation and water level management procedures which will provide high and stable levels through spring spawning …
