Differences in dietary niche and foraging behavior of sympatric mule and white‐tailed deer
Ecosphere, 2019 Mule (Odocoileus hemionus) and white‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) are congeneric and share similar life histories, yet their distribution is segregated across much of North America. Extensive research on both species within and outside their zone

Re-evaluating neonatal-age models for ungulates: does model choice affect survival estimates? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 New-hoof growth is regarded as the most reliable metric for predicting age of newborn ungulates, but variation in estimated age among hoof-growth equations that have been developed may affect estimates of survival in staggered-entry models. We used known-

, 2023 Abstract Black-tailed and mule deer (both designated as Odocoileus hemionus; hereafter referred to as “deer” or “mule deer”) comprise an iconic species that is broadly distributed across western North America. This species occurs in all rangeland types including grasslands, desert shrublands, forests, savannah woodlands, and even portions of ...

Effects of underburning on habitat use of mule deer during migration
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2019 Mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus hemionus) populations have been declining throughout their range and deteriorating habitat conditions are likely one cause of these declines. Reductions in food and cover availability along traditional routes may especially

Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Outdoor recreation is widespread, with uncertain effects on wildlife. The human shield hypothesis (HSH) suggests that recreation could have differential effects on predators and prey, with predator avoidance of humans creating a spatial refuge ‘shielding’
