'^-••r' >fMk ^*a*' Figure 106 Fire offers no short-term benefits to deer on winter ranges east of the Sierras. In fact, fire, by destroying the browse plants and favoring herba- eeons vegetation, is detrimental and can lead to wholesale losses of deer on winter ranges in the intermountain area. In timber types, extensive use of fire is not advisable. While fire may be nsed in forest types to open np dense tree canopies, let in more sunlight, lessen tree-root competition, and thus allow nourishing forage plants room to grow, usually timber values are much too high to sacrifice for the benefit of deer except in special cases. Logging of timber opens up the forest and serves the same purpose as fire, economic loss. It should be remembered also that, as far as migratory deer are concerned, forest types are sinnmer range. Summer ranges are generally not the areas where deer food is Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original California.
