Population genomics of free‐ranging Great Plains white‐tailed and mule deer reflects a long history of interspecific hybridization

Evolutionary Applications, 2022
Hybridization is a natural process at species‐range boundaries that may variably promote the speciation process or break down species barriers but minimally will influence management outcomes of distinct populations.

Gastrointestinal Parasites of Farmed White-tailed Deer (Odocoileus virginianus) in Florida

EDIS, 2022
White-tailed deer are susceptible to infection by numerous gastrointestinal parasites. Not all parasite infections cause clinical disease, but even subclinical gastrointestinal parasitism may reduce the health and productivity of infected deer.

Patterns of deer ked (Diptera: Hippoboscidae) and tick (Ixodida: Ixodidae) infestation on white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) in the eastern United States

Parasites & Vectors, 2022
Background White-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) host numerous ectoparasitic species in the eastern USA, most notably various species of ticks and two species of deer keds. Several pathogens transmitted by ticks to humans and other animal hosts have

Accelerated evolution of SARS-CoV-2 in free-ranging white-tailed deer

Nature Communications, 2023
The zoonotic origin of the COVID-19 pandemic virus highlights the need to fill the vast gaps in our knowledge of SARS-CoV-2 ecology and evolution in non-human hosts. Here, we detected that SARS-CoV-2 was introduced from humans into white-tailed deer more

Does Temporary Baiting Affect White-Tailed Deer Space Use and Movement? New Insights Leveraging Subhourly Location Data. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We evaluated the impact of presence and removal of bait (i.e., shelled corn) on range size (ha), range overlap (proportion, 0–1), distance of activity centers to bait sites (m), and distance traveled (m/15‐min) by deer in central Texas from 2012 to 2013.
