Weathered antlers as a source of DNA

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2012
We tested antlers of Coues white‐tailed (Odocoileus virginianus couesi) and mule deer (O. hemionus) in various stages of natural decomposition to determine the degree of weathering that cast antlers could endure and still yield usable DNA.

Understanding contingency in wolf‐mediated livestock predation across a mosaic of land uses: An agent‐based modelling approach

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The return of grey wolves to multi‐use landscapes in North America and Europe raises concerns over accompanying risks of livestock predation. While local‐level risk factors have received attention, it is difficult to explore the role that landscape‐scale variables, such as landscape connectivity, play in driving livestock losses.

Aplicación de microsatélites diseñados para el Ciervo de cola blanca, renos y bóvidos a ocho especies de Cervidae neotropicales (Géneros: Odocoileus, Mazama, Blastoceros, Ozotoceros, Hippocamelus y Pudu ): Niveles de variabilidad genética, heterogeneidad

Acta Biológica Colombiana, 2001
Se analizaron los niveles de variabilidad genética en 8 especies de Cervidae neotropicales procedentes de varios países Latinoamericanos mediante la utilización de 10 marcadores microsatélites (Cervid 1, Cervid 3, NVHRT 16, NVHRT 30, NVHRT 71, NVHRT 73 ...

Capacity and limitations of US wild meat donation programmes

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Historically, sharing of wild harvests to facilitate food security followed concepts of kin selection and reciprocal altruism. However, cultural shifts have reduced access to foods for some populations in modern times. Cultural altruism through sustainably harvested wild meat donation programmes (WDPs) can reduce food and nutritional ...

Evaluating commonly used tools to quantify human activity for protected area management

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Recreation in protected areas (PAs) is growing worldwide, potentially conflicting with wildlife and ecosystem protection. Efficiently estimating human activity in PAs is crucial for balancing a dual mandate of supporting visitor access and biodiversity, but managers lack clear recommendations about the conditions under which specific tools are

Experimental SARS-CoV-2 Infection of Elk and Mule Deer

Emerging Infectious Diseases
To assess the susceptibility of elk (Cervus canadensis) and mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) to SARS-CoV-2, we performed experimental infections in both species. Elk did not shed infectious virus but mounted low-level serologic responses.

Maxillary Lymphosarcoma in a White-tailed Deer (Odocoileus virginianus) [PDF]

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2002
In 1996, lymphosarcoma was observed in a captive adult female white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) from northeastern Kansas (USA). A subcutaneous mass on the deer's left cheek was surgically removed and lymphosarcoma was diagnosed. The mass recurred within 3 wk.

Estimating the seroprevalence of Mycobacterium bovis infection in a wild deer population in southwest England

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In England, transmission of Mycobacterium bovis between cattle and certain species of free‐roaming, wild deer has been implicated in some endemic bovine tuberculosis (bTB) regions. However, there are still data and knowledge gaps regarding the role of deer in the epidemiology of this disease.
