White Tailed Deer Population and Feeder Density Effects on the Spatial Heterogeneity of vegetation, and Deer Population Dynamics.
I grew up hunting and fishing in Illinois, and my passion for the outdoors turned into a career in wildlife science. I am working on my Master’s degree in South Texas, working with white tailed deer populations. My goal is to help land managers and hunters alike to manage deer herds in a way that benefits both the deer and their environments. I am using different densities of deer and protein feeders to test the effects on the spatial heterogeneity of herbaceous vegetation, as well as the deer populations themselves.
