Ten were captured on Consol's property in the Fattig Creek drainage. Three Oregon-style deer traps were used in that area. Eleven deer were captured in the upper Halfbreed Creek drainage with a corral-type trap (Stoneberg 1973). Each animal was fitted with an individually color-coded neckband which consisted of "Saflag" sewn onto a canvas web backing. Capture and relocation data for individual animals marked since January 1973 appear in Table 2, except for one animal captured in February 1974 from which a neckband was returned. Seasonal movements for two adult females, ear tag numbers D-1604 and D-1629, captured at the same trap site during January 1973, were estimated by six and seven observations, respectively (Figure 3). Most relocations of these animals were made during spring 1974 and D-1629 was not observed during either summer. All relocations were within miles of the trap site. During summer, fall, winter or late spring, the two does were ob- served in nonagricultural types in side drainages of Fattig Creek (Figure 3), During the period of March 25 through April 18, 1974, both were observed on a cultivated area on Fattig Creek. All five deer marked in the Fattig -7-.
