Field of Dreams Sponsorship
The MCBA -- along with many other great organizations -- helped to sponsor
the annual "Field of Dreams" in 2010; an event to give joy to children
with special needs and their families through outdoor activities. We look
forward to helping out again with this truly special event in 2011.
MCBA Helps Fish and Game retrieve deer collars.
Fish and Game tranquilize deer yearly in their management
program, and place radio and GPS units on them so they can track
the deer for herd data studies. It is vital to have this information to
understand how deer are responding to new and old influences in
their habitat; such as lion predation, coyote predation, bear
predation , natural mortality due to environmental changes and
other things that haved changed over the years -- such as the
commercial marijuana industry which has been devastating the deer herds
in public lands. MCBA volunteer Jack Booth -- a retired Mendocino
County Fish and Game Biologist -- Paul Trouette, the President of MCBA, and
MCBA member Lee Nerli spend their time here in 2007 finding the
collar from a deer in the Mendocino National Forest Andersen Creek
Area.
