I was up in Bishop a couple of weeks ago fishing. Saturday afternoon, 4 deer came through camp, and one had a blaze orange band around it's neck. It was about 1 - 1 1/2 inches wide and I didn't see any numbers or anything. Anyone have any ideas what this was all about? I'm not a deer hunter, and have never seen or heard of anything like this.

Sounds like a radio collar. Was it on a doe?
He has no gallery to applaud or disapprove of his conduct... Whatever his acts, they are dictated by his own conscience rather than a mob of onlookers. It is difficult to exaggerate the importance of this fact.

I was on a doe. Does the DFG regularly tag and track deer?

I think they are putting collars on deer more and more often now to see if they can figure out patterns. Especially with the migrating herds.
Habitat, habitat, habitat, that is where it is at. Unless we maintain the habitat, our wildlife and our way of life will not last.

There radio collar's there is one herd up in Mammoth area that has 6 doe's with collar's on them when there all with in 100 yards of each other they stick out like a sore thumb.
I think they use flourescent collars to make it easier to find mountain lion poop....Just look for the pile with orange shreds in it
