Tips to Encourage Small Game Species
- Avoid abrupt transitions between forest stands, openings, fields, and drainages.
- Encourage shrub cover along borders of fields and other openings.
- Use strip plantings and strip disking to encourage use from multiple wildlife species.
- Incorporate grain-producing plants in food plot planting mixes within strip plantings.
- Create brush piles along wildlife travel corridors (i.e., rights of way, drainages, field edges).
- Use prescribed fire as often as possible.
- Retain overgrown oaks during forestry activities as wildlife rest areas.
- Encourage den trees and fallen logs as wildlife attractors.
