The dataset tabulates the population of White Deer by gender across 18 age groups. It lists the male and female population in each age group along with the gender ratio for White Deer. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population distribution of White Deer by gender and age. For example, using this dataset, we can identify the largest age group for both Men and Women in White Deer. Additionally, it can be used to see how the gender ratio changes from birth to senior most age group and male to female ratio across each age group for White Deer.

In 2008, the Quality Deer Management Association (QDMA) developed a map of white-tailed deer density with information obtained from state wildlife agencies. The map contains information from 2001 to 2005, with noticeable changes since the development of the first deer density map made by QDMA in 2001. The University of Minnesota, Forest Ecosystem Health Lab and the US Department of Agriculture, Forest Service-Northern Research Station have digitized the deer density map to provide information on the status and trends of forest health across the eastern United States. The QDMA spatial map depicting deer density (deer per square mile) was digitized across the eastern United States. Estimates of deer density were: White = rare, absent, or urban area with unknown population, Green = less than 15 deer per square mile, Yellow = 15 to 30 deer per square mile, Orange = 30 to 40 deer per square mile, or Red = greater than 45 deer per square mile. These categories represent coarse deer density levels as identified in the QDMA report in 2009 and should not be used to represent current or future deer densities across the study region.

This data breaks down estimated hunters as well as antlered, antlerless and total harvest numbers by:
Harvest and active hunter numbers are estimates based on replies received from a sample of resident hunters and are therefore subject to statistical error.
Additional technical and statistical notes can be found in the data dictionary.
For data analysis purposes, Game Management Units (GMUs) are grouped into 7 Data Analysis Units (DAUs) based on deer population characteristics, ecological conditions, and local management considerations. For more information, see: https://idfg.idaho.gov/sites/default/files/plan-deer-white-tailed-2020-25.pdf
Areas used to define deer population objectives and monitor deer population status. Parameters important to managing deer populations are trends in population size, fawn recruitment, natural mortality of fawns and adults, hunter harvest rates, and age structure.
The Selkirk White-tailed Deer Management Zone (WDMZ) is home to the largest population of white-tailed deer in the state and consists of seven Game Management Units (GMU; GMUs 105, 108, 111, 113, 117, 121, and 124) located in northeast Washington. Aside from the southern portion of GMU 124, dominated by the metropolitan area of Spokane, Washington, most of these GMUs have similar rural characteristics. Private landowners manage most of the Selkirk WDMZ (77 percent), primarily for commercial timber harvest. The U.S. Forest Service manages 16 percent of the land, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Department of Natural Resources, and Bureau of Land Management manage the remaining 7 percent. White-tailed deer used in this analysis were captured on their winter range in GMUs 117 and 121, where the habitat consists of conifer forest (65 percent of the total land cover within the area) and shrub land. Grassland, pasture, and cultivated crops make up the next highest land cover types (altogether comprising nearly 21 percent of the Selkirk WDMZ). Agriculture in the valley supports high densities of deer adjacent to U.S. Highway 395, which bisects the Selkirk WDMZ from north to south. This white-tailed deer population experiences some of the highest rates of deer-vehicle collisions in the state (Myers and others 2008; G. Kalisz, Washington Department of Transportation, written commun.). Currently, there are no crossing mitigations in place along U.S. Highway 395 and State Route 20 to curtail collisions with wildlife. Other wildlife-human management challenges for this herd include mitigating crop damage complaints, maximizing hunting opportunity, and encroaching human development on the deer’s winter range. These mapping layers show the location of the migration routes for White-Tailed Deer (odocoileus virginianus) in the Selkirk population in Washington. They were developed from 121 migration sequences collected from a sample size of 43 animals comprising GPS locations collected every 4 hours.

Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a fatal transmissible spongiform encephalopathy affecting white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus), Rocky Mountain elk (Cervus elaphus nelsoni), and moose (Alces alces shirasi) in North America. In southeastern Wyoming average annual CWD prevalence in mule deer exceeds 20% and appears to contribute to regional population declines. We determined the effect of CWD on mule deer demography using age-specific, female-only, CWD transition matrix models to estimate the population growth rate (λ). Mule deer were captured from 2010–2014 in southern Converse County Wyoming, USA. Captured adult (≥ 1.5 years old) deer were tested ante-mortem for CWD using tonsil biopsies and monitored using radio telemetry. Mean annual survival rates of CWD-negative and CWD-positive deer were 0.76 and 0.32, respectively. Pregnancy and fawn recruitment were not observed to be influenced by CWD. We estimated λ = 0.79, indicating an annual population decline of 21% under current CWD prevalence levels. A model derived from the demography of only CWD-negative individuals yielded; λ = 1.00, indicating a stable population if CWD were absent. These findings support CWD as a significant contributor to mule deer population decline. Chronic wasting disease is difficult or impossible to eradicate with current tools, given significant environmental contamination, and at present our best recommendation for control of this disease is to minimize spread to new areas and naïve cervid populations.
From 1962-2008, White-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) were studied at the SUNY ESF Huntington Wildlife Forest (HWF) and adjacent private and public lands in Essex and Hamilton Counties, New York, USA. Social group membership, migration and dispersal, reproductive biology, and many other objectives were studied over the course of the study period. Deer were captured, individually marked with ear tags or streamers, fitted with radio collars (later, GPS collars), and released to be tracked for a variety of research objectives. Deer were located by visual observation, recapture, and/or their location was estimated with ground, air or tower-based radio telemetry. Physical condition of deer was recorded at capture and at subsequent recapture or visual observation select variables were documented (e.g., deer group size; presence of fawns with does). Physiological, demographic, social organization, home range and behavior data were collected. HWF is a no-hunting area but deer could be harvested if they moved to huntable parts of the study area; there was a managed hunt on HWF in 1966-1970 and in 1984 to meet deer density and forest management objectives at that time. Unmarked deer were incorporated into the dataset if they were roadkilled, harvested or otherwise encountered during field activity; these deer did not receive individual identifications but may have been incorporated into select projects.

The Mesa mule deer population is part of the larger Sublette herd that winters in the north-central portion of the Green River Basin, east of the Green River and west of U.S. Highway 191 (fig. 32). The Mesa wintering area supports 3,000 to 5,000 deer that migrate northwest to summer ranges in the Wyoming Range, Gros Ventre Range, and Salt River Range. The Mesa winter range, which has been fragmented by a large natural gas field, has experienced 30–40 percent declines in deer abundance since this development began. Mitigating winter range impacts continues to be a challenge for managers. These migratory deer have benefited from six underpasses and two overpasses constructed along U.S. Highway 191 in 2012; the project has reduced wildlife-vehicle collisions by 85 percent. These data provide the location of migration routes for mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) in the Mesa population in Wyoming. They were developed from Brownian bridge movement models using 133 migration sequences collected from a sample size of 33 animals comprising GPS locations collected every 2-8 hours.

Context
The dataset tabulates the White Deer population over the last 20 plus years. It lists the population for each year, along with the year on year change in population, as well as the change in percentage terms for each year. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population change of White Deer across the last two decades. For example, using this dataset, we can identify if the population is declining or increasing. If there is a change, when the population peaked, or if it is still growing and has not reached its peak. We can also compare the trend with the overall trend of United States population over the same period of time.
Key observations
In 2023, the population of White Deer was 995, a 9.10% increase year-by-year from 2022. Previously, in 2022, White Deer population was 912, an increase of 1.45% compared to a population of 899 in 2021. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2023, population of White Deer decreased by 67. In this period, the peak population was 1,062 in the year 2000. The numbers suggest that the population has already reached its peak and is showing a trend of decline. Source: U.S. Census Bureau Population Estimates Program (PEP).

Deer group locations and sizes are used in assessing deer populations living on the 'open range'. 'Open range' generally means open areas of habitat used mainly by red deer (for example, heather moorland). From the outset it is important to be clear that although the terms 'count' or 'census' are used, open range counting enables a population estimate to be made, but with associated error margins. Research has shown that, normally, estimates will vary by between 5 and 16%. In other words if you count 415 deer then the population estimate is at best between 348 and 481 (or at very best between 394 and 435). Open range population counts (and their resulting estimates) are therefore most likely to be useful for setting broad targets or giving an index of deer numbers as opposed to very precise population models. They are also useful for indicating trends in a series of counts. Count information can be obtained by joining table DEER_COUNT_INDEX based on COUNT_ID columns. Both Helicopter and ground counts are included in the data. The majority of the data were collected in 'white ground' conditions where the contrast between deer and the background of snow is maximised enabling deer to be more easily spotted. Summer counts of 'Priority' sites are also included where sites have been counted more intensively.

This dataset consists of occurrence observations for white-tailed deer in the National Park Service Heartland Inventory and Monitoring Network Parks. Because of their impacts on vegetation, disease transmission, visitor health, and vehicle-deer collisions, park managers at Arkansas Post National Memorial, Pea Ridge National Military Park, and Wilson’s Creek National Battlefield identified white-tailed deer as a vital sign for monitoring. Monitoring white-tailed deer populations better positions park management to take action to mitigate concerns involving deer. The overall goals of HTLN white-tailed deer monitoring are to 1) document annual changes in the number of white-tailed deer, as changes could signal presence of illegal deer harvest, disease, or other acute factors of concern for park management; 2) document long-term trends in the number of white-tailed deer to help park management determine if measures need to be taken to maintain herd health, minimize vegetation damage within a park, or alleviate visitor health concerns; and 3) annually map locations of white-tailed deer observed to assist park management in assessing the influences of management actions on deer usage of an area, habitat type, etc.

Predator-prey interactions are important to regulating populations and structuring communities but are affected by many dynamic, complex factors, across larges-scales, making them difficult to study. Integrated population models (IPMs) offer a potential solution to understanding predator-prey relationships by providing a framework for leveraging many different datasets and testing hypotheses about interactive factors. Here, we evaluate the coyote-deer (Canis latrans – Odocoileus virginianus) predator-prey relationship across the state of North Carolina (NC). Because both species have similar habitat requirements and may respond to human disturbance, we considered net primary productivity (NPP) and urbanization as key mediating factors. We estimated deer survival and fecundity by integrating camera trap, harvest, biological and hunter observation datasets into a two-stage, two-sex Lefkovich population projection matrix. We allowed survival and fecundity to vary as functions of urbanizati..., Survival and harvest rates: We used the dynamic N-mixture model of Zipkin et al. (2014) to estimate stage and sex-based survival and harvest rates from stage-at-harvest data collected statewide from 2012-2017 over all 100 counties of North Carolina. The stage-at-harvest data were collected by county each year for two stages for male deer (adults and fawns about to transition to adulthood (i.e., button bucks)) and does. We assumed that all button bucks were fawns and all females were adults. The census took place right before fawns transitioned to adulthood and we considered all fawns to reach adulthood at one year of age. Fawn:doe ratio: To represent hunted populations, we used 2017 hunter observation data from each county of NC. Hunters documented what species they observed on their hunts, given the number of hours they spent hunting, to get an index of abundance. The location of these observations was known only to the county level. Hunters were instructed to report their hunting acti..., ,
The Mendocino mule deer herd complex is comprised of three overlapping black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) administrative herds, including Mendocino, Clear Lake, and Alder Springs. Mendocino black-tailed deer exhibit variable movement patterns and strategies, including traditional seasonal migrants, full-time residents, and multi-range migrants. Migrants move between seasonal ranges from a multitude of lower elevation areas within the North Coast Range in winter to higher elevation summer ranges (fig. XXX). Local biologists predict high-use winter ranges throughout both foothill slopes and valley bottoms. Female deer of the Mendocino herd complex exhibit both short-term (seasonal/annual) and long-term (multi-generational) fidelity to their summer ranges (Bose and others, 2017). Population density estimates in 2011 and 2012 based on fecal DNA pellets indicated exceptionally high deer densities on productive summer ranges (50.75 deer/km2; Lounsberry and others, 2015). However, the population was declining strongly at the time of study due to low adult survival, including of prime-aged females (Marescot and others, 2015). Survival rates were lower than typically observed for mule deer populations across their range (Forrester and Wittmer, 2013). Predation from black bears (Ursus americanus) and coyotes (Canis latrans) was the primary cause for low annual survival of fawns (Forrester and Wittmer, 2019) while predation from pumas (Puma concolor) was the foremost cause of adult female mortality (Marescot and others, 2015), often in areas deemed less familiar to the individual mule deer (Forrester and others, 2015). Puma kill rates of mule deer in the study area were the highest reported across their range (Cristescu and others, 2022), likely due to high rates of kleptoparasitism from black bears (Elbroch and others, 2015; Allen and others, 2021). More recent research from CDFW was directed at the collection of DNA from fecal pellets to update population density estimates (CDFW, 2015) and to determine population response to catastrophic wildfire (CDFW, 2019; CAL FIRE, 2021). Habitat use of mule deer (Bose and others, 2018) and their predators (Cristescu and others, 2019) in the area is well understood and most of the habitats occupied by the Mendocino herd complex are protected and not at risk of development or fragmentation. However, the risk of catastrophic wildfire and climate changed induced landscape scale changes exist with the consequences unknown. These mapping layers show the location of the winter range for mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) in the Mendocino population in California. They were developed from 65 winter sequences collected from a sample size of 45 animals comprising GPS locations collected every 1-13 hours.

Our objectives were to examine the population history of axis deer on Maui, estimate observed population growth, and then use species-specific demographic parameters in a VORTEX population viability analysis to examine removal scenarios that would most effectively reduce the population. Only nine deer were introduced in 1959, but recent estimates of >10,000 deer suggest population growth rates (r) ranging between 0.147 and 0.160 although at least 11,200 have been removed by hunters and resource managers. In the VORTEX simulations, we evaluated an initial population size of 6,000 females and 4,000 males, reflecting the probable 3F:2M sex ratio on Maui because of male biased hunting. Scenarios were modeled over a 10-year period with removal rates of 10%, 20%, and 30% of each annual population estimate, considering both growth and removals. A removal rate of 10% the annual population estimate (1,000 deer in the first year), and an evenly distributed effort that would remove an approximate ratio of 3F:2M resulted in a positive growth rate of 0.103 ± 0.001. A 20% removal rate resulted in only a slight negative growth, while a 30% removal rate dropped the estimate to 2,759 ± 15 deer in 10 years. By increasing the ratio of females removed to 4F:1M in the 30% removals scenario, the rate of decline nearly doubled and resulted in a mean population of 1,086 ± 15 deer. Our results indicate that effectively reducing an axis deer population would require an annual removal of approximately 20–30% of the estimated population and maintaining a ratio of 4F:1M would result in the steepest population decline.
