Distance, weather, and forage conditions drive timing of autumn migration in female mule deer [PDF]

Movement Ecology
Background Seasonal migration is a behavioral strategy that animals evolved to exploit seasonally changing resources. Ungulates in northern temperate landscapes often seasonally migrate between low-elevation winter ranges and higher-elevation summer ...

Facts about Wildlife Diseases: Things You Should Know about Deerpox Virus in Farmed White-Tailed Deer in Florida

EDIS
Pox viruses are widespread and infect many hosts, including insects, reptiles, birds, and mammals. Some, like chicken pox, are highly adapted to humans, and others, like monkeypox, can be transmitted from species to species.

Evaluating movement-based methods for estimating the frequency and timing of parturition in mule deer [PDF]

Movement Ecology
Background Information on reproduction of harvested species such as mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) is vital for conservation and management. Furthermore, parturition in ungulates may be detected using patterns of movement logged by GPS transmitters ...

Mule deer and energy development—Long‐term trends of habituation and abundance

Global Change Biology, 2017
As the extent and intensity of energy development in North America increases, so do disturbances to wildlife and the habitats they rely upon. Impacts to mule deer are of particular concern because some of the largest gas fields in the USA overlap ...
