Effects of male‐biased harvest on mule deer: Implications for rates of pregnancy, synchrony, and timing of parturition

Effects of male‐biased harvest on mule deer: Implications for rates of pregnancy, synchrony, and timing of parturition

ABSTRACT Evaluating how management practices influence the population dynamics of ungulates may enhance future management of these species. For example, in mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus), changes in male/female ratio due to male‐biased harvest may alter rates of pregnancy, timing of parturition, an...
