John Ozoga one of North Americas premier deer researchers shares his common-sense insights into the continents most popular, adaptive and majestic game animal.

This book compiles 35 of Ozogas most intriguing and fascinating articles. Part 1 examines the whitetails society; Part 2, whitetail social communication; Part 3, survival of the herd; and part 4, the whitetails future.
Accompanying Ozogas in-depth text is the breath-taking work of renowned wildlife photographers to help illustrate the whitetails complex behavior.

An Excellent Choice For Any Deer Hunter,
By A Customer
This review is from: John Ozoga's Whitetail Intrigue (Hardcover)
It is not often that one encounters a book that answers long standing questions, especially those that arise from the contradictions found in the popular deer hunting press. There is nothing Gee Whiz about Mr. Ozoga, he tells it like he sees it. When he doesn't know he tells you that too. This book is based on 30 years observation and experimentation on white tails at the Cusino Wildlife Research Station and dispels many of the myths and folklore regarding deer.Be aware, however, that this book is not easy reading, but seems to be based on the discussion and conclusion sections of his research papers. It is approachable and yields to the diligent reader. It is well worth the effort and the price. I agree wholeheartedly with Mr. Barton's review.

John Ozoga Whitetail Intrigue,
By Tim (Wisconsin) - See all my reviews
This review is from: John Ozoga's Whitetail Intrigue (Hardcover)
I have been studying and hunting Whitetail deer for over 30 years and this book actually contains useful information. Too many times books of this sort are centered on some gimmick to kill the big one. This is not the case with Ozoga's work, you will come away with a deeper understanding of the deer's habits, social order and habitat requirements. Especially for the northern deer herd. For anyone who has an interest in Whitetails this is a must read.

We Need More Northern Whitetail Books,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: John Ozoga's Whitetail Intrigue (Hardcover)
As a northern deer hunter I am delighted with this book. Most of the whitetail deer books out there (at least the managment ones) are based in the south. Ozaga's book rings home with this Michigan guy.The book is packed with great info on northern deer behavior. The photos are good and the research is sound. I wish there were more out there like it. So far, next to Alsheimer's deer books this is my favorite. I also just found a great northern food plot and habitat book called "Grow 'Em Right" by Dougherty and Dougherty which is right on the money up here in cold country. |
