Evaluating the effectiveness of expandable radiocollars for juvenile cervids

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2014
We present the retention rate of expandable radiocollars that can be used on juvenile cervids. These collars permit investigations into a previously understudied segment of cervid populations.
