NOTES 237 THE STEWART MODIFIED CORRAL TRAP In conjunction with the North Kings Deer Management Project (Bertram 1973), deer Avere trapped for marking and radio collaring to establish migration routes, delay areas, and to aid studies on fawn production and survival. Winter range deer trapping provided inform- ation on deer movement to various sections of the summer range; how- ever, some gaps occurred regarding movements to and from certain sections of the summer range. In order to fill in these gaps it was decided to trap deer on the summer range at selected locations. Attempts with snares (Ashcraft and Reese 1957) and baited Clover traps (Clover 1956) in the summer of 1971 were unsuccessful. In the summer of 1972, trapping on the summer range was attempted using a corral trap consisting of five m x m (7 ft x 7 ft) panels and a slightly modified gate from an "Oregon Panel" trap (Anon., 1962). Three does were subsequently caught. One escaped during han- dling, one killed itself when it hit the gate attempting to escape and the third broke the gate and escaped. Bin Stewart, Department of Fish and Game Fresno Unit Wildlife Manager, suggested attaching a Clover Trap to the corral trap to alle- viate injury and handling problems. The idea was that a deer after. FIGURE 1. A Stewart Modified Corral Trap in place. The main gate, front, is a large version of a Clover trap gate. One of the Clover traps is visible at the left rear.
