As longas there is food for them to get, they seem to carry on. Theyeven flourish around farms and near centers of great popula-tions, in some instances.

Though they have nippedthe vegetables in my garden and have trampled my flowerbeds, I wish them good luck and immunity to the hunters'bolts be they bullets or broadheads.
