A great many animals die. Small animals experience martalities up to 80% year after year. Yet some always live to reproduce the following year. Much of what we as biologists do is geared toward increasing the winter survival rate. This problem of

survival is handled differently for different types of wildlife. Mobility of course plays an important role. Those animals that can, leave. Birds often use this method. Come fall, the southern U. S., Caribbean Islands and Central America play host to many of the birds we see in summer. We in this region however, have mild winters compared to the far north. Many of the birds that winter here are retreating from the north; to them, our winters are warm. Biologists call this regional migration. Generally we think of migration from north to south or the reverse. In the western mountains, migration can be a movement in elevation. Elk for instance move down the mountains to milder climates. Another way to survive winter is to hibernate. This is by far the safest for many animals. Groundhogs and ground squirrels store up fat, crawl in a warm hole, lower their body temperature, slow down body functions and sleep. The animals that we normally associate with winter such as cottontails. squirrels and raccoons lack the ability to hibernate. They can, however, hole up during the most severe weather, but they must venture out to feed. A winter like last year is extremely hard on these animals. In fact, we find that these types of animals seldom exist more than a few hundred miles north of here. Their "holeup” wintering is simply not efficient enough. By far the roughest way to spend winter is to simply gut it out. Mor-

tality is extremely high and subsequent population fluctuations are severe. Our quail would be a good example of this. Related to this is the method called suicide. This is usually reserved for small portions of populations. Examples of this would be doves and robins. Every year many of these animals forget to migrate. As winter drags on more and more perish until nearly all are lost. I have seen flocks of several thousand doves start the winter and be reduced to a few hundred toe-less survivors come spring. We modem humans are the only animals that arc relatively unconcerned about winter. We can go anywhere or stay home in complete comfort. At least as long as the Arabs let us.
