| Buckey isn't a him or a her;
it's them. The name was chosen in recognition of, perhaps, the most beautiful
and stately of the wild life species that inhabit New Hampshire's Lakes Region, the white tail deer. White tail deer
abound in the Lakes Region; the delicate fawns in the spring, the graceful,
soft-eyed does and the legendary antlered bucks of autumn. No matter what
your age or how many white tails you have seen, spotting one--or several--is always a thrill.
In the Lakes Region, white tail are just one of the many wild creatures you can see.
Sightings of the majestic moose, bear, fox, raccoons, porcupine, coyote and
the many species of birds, including a wide array of song birds and such
exotic types as grouse, wild turkeys and the fabled loon are common.
Throughout the warmer months of the
year, it is not unusual to see a line of cars parked
precariously on the shoulder of a road and crowds of excited tourists
pointing fingers and cameras at a moose grazing obliviously in plain sight.
Catching a glimpse of New
Hampshire's
wildlife is an extra treat for residents and visitors to the Lakes Region,
but it is wise to remember that interfering with Nature's ways can lead to
tragic outcomes for both wildlife and humans. The first thing to remember is
that no matter how well-intentioned or how much fun it is, feeding wild
creatures is not good for them. The food they are fed is usually not suited
to their normally healthy diet. Further, it can lead animals to become
dependent on handouts and draw them to areas that are dangerous for them.
Feeding water fowl can be a deadly treat for the birds because they quickly
become dependent on the handouts and suffer when their human friends go away
for the winter. Second, remember wild life is just that wild. Animals should
never be approached too closely. Getting too close to a bear can spell real
trouble. Keep your distance. And most important, be extra alert when driving
at night, especially on narrow winding roads with little or no shoulders.
Each year hundreds of deer are killed in collisions with automobiles and the
damage to the vehicles is estimated in the thousands. Worse, many people are
killed or seriously injured as a result of auto collisions with moose that
can weight up to 1500 pounds. Common sense will make wildlife observation
more fun and help make sure Nature's creatures are among our lasting wonders
in the Lakes Region.
