ECONOMIC IMPACTS OF WHITE-TAILED DEER FROM HUNTING IN MISSISSIPPI [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
White-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) are an important ecological, social, and economic resource in Mississippi. Studies have been conducted on expenditures by white-tailed deer hunters, but none have administered a research-based, economic impact ...

Arboreal and Terrestrial Frugivore Vertebrate Assemblage Diversity and Composition Vary With Disturbance Histories in Guianan Forests

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study examined the impact of human disturbances on arboreal and terrestrial fruit‐consuming vertebrate assemblages across three tropical forest sites in French Guiana. While species richness remained consistent across sites, results revealed significant variations in visitation rates and a shift in dominant species.

Diseases and Parasites [of White-tailed Deer] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Wildlife biologists have long pursued understanding the ecology of diseases and parasites impacting white-tailed deer (e.g., see Whitlock, 1939), an important field of study because they can detrimentally affect deer populations, other wildlife ...

Inferring Geographic Origin of White‐Tailed Deer (Odocoileus virginianus) Using Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in a Region Experiencing Long‐Term Effects of Chronic Wasting Disease

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
We analyzed 1749 samples of white‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) genotyped for > 63,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms to assess genetic structure in the mid‐Atlantic region of the USA, and to evaluate the effectiveness of genetic methods to retrieve the correct geographic origin of deer. The inferred genetic structure can inform the delineation

Factors influencing water consumption by White-tailed deer

open access: yes, 2019
Little is known about water consumption by white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), but the highly variable rainfall and high temperatures that occur in South Texas have the potential to cause stress in animals that are unable to maintain water ...

Capacity and limitations of US wild meat donation programmes

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 10, Page 3215-3220, October 2026.
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 ...

The magnitude and economic replacement value of wild meat obtained from ‘recreational’ big game hunting in the United States

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 10, Page 3446-3458, October 2026.
Abstract Meat production has notable benefits for food security, nutrition and various production economies, but has elicited substantial negative environmental impacts. Recreational hunting provides an alternative to agricultural meat production for over 24 million hunters worldwide.

Predicting disease spread from host movement data: Chronic wasting disease in North America as a case study

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 10, Page 1919-1932, October 2026.
This paper estimates the rate of chronic wasting disease spread in multiple regions and compares these rates with model predictions based on deer movement data. Abstract Rare long‐distance movements can increase the spatial spread of invasive species and shifts in species ranges. For wildlife disease spread, however, seasonal migrations may only matter
