The Mating System of White-Tailed Deer Under Quality Deer Management

JOURNAL OF WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT, 80(5), 935–940.

By: M. Turner n, C. Deperno n , W. Booth *, E. Vargo *, M. Conner* & R. Lancia n

author keywords: Chesapeake Farms; microsatellite profiling; Odocoileus virginianus; paternity analysis; Quality Deer Management; white-tailed deer
TL;DR: The results indicate management strategies that employ QDM practices with a goal of propagating the genes of dominant males may fall short, and the interplay among sex ratio, age structure, and dominance relationships may be the main influences of mating success. (via Semantic Scholar)

Evaluating the Effect of Predators on White-Tailed Deer: Movement and Diet of Coyotes

JOURNAL OF WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT, 75(4), 905–912.

By: M. Turner n, A. Rockhill n, C. Deperno n , J. Jenks*, R. Klaver *, A. Jarding*, T. Grovenburg*, K. Pollock n

author keywords: Canis latrans; coyotes; habitat selection; Minnesota; Odocoileus virginianus; white-tailed deer
TL;DR: It is suggested that coyote predation was not likely limiting white-tailed deer populations in southeast Minnesota, because coyote movement and diet vary by region, local data are important to understand coyote population dynamics and their impact on prey species. (via Semantic Scholar)
