Book Habitat Use by White tailed Deer in Relation to Winter Range Silvicultural Treatments in the Thompson River Drainage Northwestern Montana

Download or read book Habitat Use by White tailed Deer in Relation to Winter Range Silvicultural Treatments in the Thompson River Drainage Northwestern Montana written by Loren Lee Hicks and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A study to evaluate white-tailed deer winter range use in relation to forest stand and weather conditions was conducted during three winters from 1983-1986. Data were collected from 16.1 km (10 mi.) of ground transects and 20 radio-collared deer located on winter range in the study area. One hundred thirty seven telemetry locations were evaluated with a GEOSCAN cartographic program. The program scanned 40 ha (100 ac.) around each location to generate a frequency distribution of cover types from a digitized vegetation map. A winter severity index was used to classify transect and telemetry observations of deer use into mild, moderate and severe winter condition categories. Under mild winter conditions, white-tailed deer used 13 cover types in proportion to their availability on the winter range. Observed proportion of cover type use by deer under moderate and severe winter conditions differed from that expected. Deer utilized openings, lightly stocked plantations, and riparian pole-sized timber significantly less than availability and preferred upland pole and riparian sawtimber-sized stands. Multiple regression analysis of snow depth, percent canopy closure and aspect vs. deer use was significant, especially when snow depth exceeded 40 cm (13 in.). Discriminant function analysis was not particularly effective in identifying habitat variables to predict deer occurrence under mild and moderate conditions. The discriminating variables for severe winter conditions were one tree basal area variable, one diversity related variable, one aspect variable, and one stand type variable. Reductions in deer use one year following timber harvest ranged from 52-85% and were related to reductions in canopy closure. Overall rankings of cover type use derived from transects did not differ significantly from rankings obtained by telemetry. However, large differences in individual cover type rankings between techniques were observed in conifer plantations and upland sawtimber cover types. Rankings of cover type use derived from both techniques were correlated. The relationship between forest structural components on winter ranges and the silvicultura1 practices which affect them is discussed. Guidelines for winter range si1vicultcra1 treatments are proposed. Management implications of the guidelines are discussed. The distribution of winter range structural types in the study area was within recommended guidelines"--Leaf ii.

Book White tailed Deer Habitat

Download or read book White tailed Deer Habitat written by Timothy E. Fulbright and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For most of the last century, range management meant managing land for livestock. How well a landowner grew the grass that cattle ate was the best measure of success. In this century, landowners look to hunting and wildlife viewing for income; rangeland is now also wildlife habitat, and they are managing their land not just for cattle but also for wildlife, most notably deer and quail. Unlike other books on white-tailed deer in places where rainfall is relatively high and the environment stable, this book takes an ecological approach to deer management in the semiarid lands of Oklahoma, Texas, and northern Mexico. These are the least productive of white-tail habitats, where periodic drought punctuates long-term weather patterns. The book's focus on this landscape across political borders is one of its original and lasting contributions. Another is its contention that good management is based on ecological principles that guide the manager's thinking about: Habitat Requirements of White-Tailed Deer White-Tailed Deer Nutrition Carrying Capacity Habitat Manipulation Predators Hunting Timothy Edward Fulbright is a Regents Professor and the Meadows Professor in Semiarid Land Ecology at the Caesar Kleberg Wildlife Research Institute, Texas A&M University-Kingsville.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The original, 2006 edition of Timothy Edward Fulbright and J. Alfonso Ortega-S.’s White-Tailed Deer Habitat: Ecology and Management on Rangelands was hailed as “a splendid reference for the classroom and those who make their living from wildlife and the land” and as “filling a niche that is not currently approached in the literature.” In this second, full-color edition, revised and expanded to include the entire western United States and northern Mexico, Fulbright and Ortega-S. provide a carefully reasoned synthesis of ecological and range management principles that incorporates rangeland vegetation management and the impact of crops, livestock, predation, and population density within the context of the arid and semiarid habitats of this broad region. As landowners look to hunting as a source of income and to the other benefits of managing for wildlife, the clear presentation of the up-to-date research gathered in this book will aid their efforts. Essential points covered in this new edition include: White-tailed deer habitat requirements Nutritional needs of White-tailed deer Carrying capacity Habitat management Hunting Focused across political borders and written with an understanding of environments where periodic drought punctuates long-term weather patterns, this revised and expanded edition of White-Tailed Deer Habitat: Ecology and Management on Rangelands will aid landowners, researchers, and naturalists in their efforts to integrate land management and use with sound ecological practices.
