Description
White-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) are an important resource for Tennesseans. They are enjoyed by consumptive and nonconsumptive users alike. Approximately 190,000 hunters pursued deer during the 1992-93 hunting season in Tennessee. They successfully harvested 126,999 deer (Greg Wathen, TWRA Assistant Chief of Wildlife, pers. commun.) and it has been estimated that these hunters would have spent approximately $125 million on goods and services related to deer hunting (Whitehead 1991).
