Global Warming impact on Southern Miss, Louisiana, Alabama Deer

I want to get a federal grant to the various states W&F to study the impact of global warming on the deer seasons in the Southern Part of La Ms Bama. Does anyone on here know if anything like this is being done. We are missing the rut every year now even with the extended season. They started chasing at our camp Thursday. Season closed Monday. To do this study you would obviously need a number of late after season bucks taken for study. I am glad to help with this part.

Where's your camp?
They were chasing in Lowndes County starting @ the 20th of January. I know we're in the northern part of the South zone so that has a bearing on the time of the rut. The extended season was pretty good for us, adding another week I do not think would've made much of a difference.

Uriah, and it sucked. Tons of nice deer but the mini heat waves killed us. Bucks have been ready last two weeks or more does nope. Maybe got to hunt 5 days of rut when wind was blowing 25 mph 3 of them. We had ghost deer get shot lie on ground and vanish, guns get jammed, you named it 
The Indians in the mounds didnt favor us this year

If the rut had anything to do with warm/ cool temps you might be on to something. Hell, considering some of the dumb as studies I've seen you still might have a shot.

I want federal money dude. You get that with the drug war or some environmental study. Since I cant prove the deer have a drug problem I am going with this. The Bama deer are almost all Northern deer From Ohio and Pennsylvania since they killed 98% of the native deer in the 50's and had to repopulate them using these Northern deer. I know our deer heard traces back to these deer and are from pens in baldwin County. This really really fricks up the Bama rut as you have Ohio deer, Penn Deer, Native deer, Hybrid Ohio Native, Penn Native, Ohio Penn deer etc. I have buddies in Southern black belt that have deer ruts all over the place.
I have a theory that these non native deer are more sensitive to the temperature changes and Indian summers as they are not used to it genetically. I have seen Rut come to complete stop when you hit mid 70's here.
Seems to be less problem in Mississippi and Louisiana but i figured they would money too 6 senators better than 2 and we need a comparison. So I will count you out for the lat February tags.

How about a study on the increase of leech populations due to government stupidity?

I've read that cold or hot means nothing, and the amount of sunlight in the day everything.
Deer around our camp rut about one or two weeks before Christmas every year, despite LDWF saying it's really in mid to late January for us.
Although, we did notice some small "secondary rut" action this year in January that I've never noticed previously.

Yeah I heard you guys shooting about two weeks ago. We were a buck desert. What they hell did yall do drop a couple of trucks or corn or something. (LOL) All the bucks were in that area this year.
I heard that dentist between just dumped his turkey corn early. I must have had a good year cause I heard it was a ton of it.
