Wildlife–vehicle collisions, especially with deer (Odocoileus spp.), elk (Cervus elaphus), and moose (Alces alces) are numerous and have shown an increasing trend over the last several decades in the United States and Canada. We calculated the costs associated with the average deer–, elk–, and moose–vehicle collision, including vehicle repair costs, human injuries and fatalities, towing, accident attendance and investigation, monetary value to hunters of the animal killed in the collision, and cost of disposal of the animal carcass. In addition, we reviewed the effectiveness and costs of 13 mitigation measures considered effective in reducing collisions with large ungulates. We conducted cost–benefit... |

This paper describes the development of a learning package to support improved pasture quality on New Zealand deer farms. The first step has been to determine the specific requirements of deer farmers that will enable them to improve pasture quality decisions on-farm. Decision support software that interprets and demonstrates the impacts of pasture quality and animal physiology on the performance of young growing deer has also been developed. Key themes identified to aid pasture management decision-making included identifying the right pasture quality, management systems to maintain pasture quality and maximising the potential of livestock. This paper reports on the type of knowledge that deer farmers require in the learning package. |

En la Mixteca Poblana el venado cola blanca es una especie que se encuentra sujeta a una fuerte presión de uso debido a su valor económico, estético y cultural. Es por esto que las poblaciones de venado requieren de zonas donde la calidad del hábitat sea favorable y les permita asegurar su subsistencia. En este estudio se evaluaron cuatro modelos de Índice de Aptitud del Hábitat (IAH) para el venado cola blanca en la región Mixteca Poblana. Dos modelos consideraron tres variables del hábitat, con y sin factor de presión antropogénica. Los otros dos modelos consideraron solamente las variables estadísticamente significativas en una regresión logística que relacionó las variables con datos de presencia/ausencia del venado obtenidos en 92 transectos. Los... |

ABSTRACT Epizootic hemorrhagic disease viruses (EHDV) are dsRNA arboviruses transmitted by biting midges of the genus Culicoides that cause disease in domestic and wild ruminants. Epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD) is considered the most important infectious disease of white tailed deer (WTD) in North America, some studies in Northeast Mexico reported EHDV-seropositive WTD and EHDV-infected Culicoides vectors. The increasing population of WTD that share habitat with livestock in Northeast México highlights the importance of EHD for the livestock industry in the transboundary region with the U.S. One hundred and twenty two samples from WTD in Tamaulipas state, Mexico were tested by ELISA and RT-PCR for EHDV antibodies and nucleic acid, respectively. Twelve... |

Deer and sheep are used as spinal animal models in clinical and basic research. In this paper, the anatomical morphology, curvature, and morphology index parameters were investigated to assess the feasibility of using deer and sheep as animal models of the human spine. Fresh adult male sheep, deer, and human spine specimens (n = 10 each) were screened and subjected to morphological analyses. The statistical software package SPSS (version 17.0) was used to analyze the statistical similarity and variability among the 3 species. Deer displayed good similarity to human in terms of the vertebral transverse diameter, radius vector, spinal canal transverse diameter, radius vector, and vertebral upper and lower endplate curvature radii. Sheep displayed good... |

El método indirecto de conteo de grupos fecales es muy empleado en la estimación de poblaciones de venado. Para realizar su estimación es necesario utilizar un índice fecal, lo que se conoce como tasa de defecación. Sin embargo, existe gran variación entre las tasas a emplear lo que hace cometer errores al estimar la densidad de población en una determinada área, independientemente de la semejanza en hábitat, lo que puede acarrear estimaciones y decisiones equivocadas en el manejo y aprovechamiento de la especie. Considerando lo anterior, se planteó la construcción de modelos para estimar las tasas de defecación de venado cola blanca a partir de los contenidos de fibra detergente neutro (FDN) y fibra detergente ácido (FDA) en heces. De mayo de 2012 a junio... |
