Apalachicola Forest During 1947 and 1948 the Apalachicola Forest management area remained closed to the hunting of deer, squirrel and game birds, since these populations have not been adequate for general hunting. How- ever, during this recovery period, the management area is in effect a breeding ground and has improved hunting in open season areas ad- jacent to it. Bear hunts were conducted in 1947 and 1948. The 1947 hunts consisted of six hunts of three days each. A total of 89 bear hunters bagged three bear. The same system of hunts was conducted in 1948. The 35 bear hunters failed to bag a bear. due. primarily, to failure on the part of the dogs used. These nets were taken from fresh water lakes in Okaloosa * 16 *.
