Urban Deer Havens consists of a thorough examination of selected
cervid (deer) species that are known to inhabit urban communities
in the United States. The deer species that are included in this
presentation consisted of white-tailed (Odocoileus virginianus),
Key deer (O. v. clavium), moose (Alces alces), elk (Cervus
elaphus), mule (Odocoileus hemionus), and black-tailed deer (O. h.
columbianus). This book is the first attempt to examine the
similarities and differences in those factors that allow the
selected cervids to exist and thrive in urban habitats. This
information has never been collected, collated, reviewed, and
published under one cover document. Yet, all five are known to
inhabit urban communities within their geographic range. The lack
of information concerning several important examples of urban
cervids in conjunction with a proliferation of information on
white-tailed deer only is an incomplete and biased presentation.
This book is the first comprehensive source of information on urban
deer management, which includes a broad assemblage of urban
cervids. The overall objective of this book is to provide a more
holistic examination of urban cervids. For example, it examines the
similarities and differences of the environmental impacts,
management strategies, and human dimensions considerations
concerning urban cervids in general, and using specific examples.
Urban Deer Havens features four chapters that include: Urban deer
census techniques and population dynamics Comprehensive tables that
review urban community deer management plans National and
state-wide estimates the five selected cervids Laws and regulations
concerning urban deer Lethal and nonlethal management options for
managing deer Steps for managing urban deer populations Examples of
urban deer management efforts
