Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Services of Austin and Colorado Counties are partnering with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department to host a Feathers, Furs, and Farming series on Friday, September 29, 2023. As part of the range and wildlife management series, this program will focus on white-tailed deer. Topics covered will include updates on Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD), habitat management, supplemental feeding, doe harvesting, learning to age deer on the hoof, and basic antler scoring. We will also have some fun with an aging quiz, so sharpen those skills!
