FAYETTE, Mo. - The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) is holding a whitetail deer management workshop for landowners and property managers from 6 to 9 p.m. on March 19 at Commercial Trust Bank, 119 N. Main St. in Fayette. The workshop is free, but space is limited and participants must pre-register by March 18.

Experts from MDC will offer presentations on a variety of topics during the workshop. Issues covered include the biology and habitat requirements of deer in Missouri, managing habitat on private land, cost-share practices for habitat management, aging deer jawbones and recording harvest data.

“This is a great opportunity for landowners to learn about how to actively manage their property for deer,” said MDC Private Land Conservationist Seth Moore. “The topics covered will assist landowners in all aspects of deer management.”
