Black-tailed and mule deer represent one of the largest
distributions of mammals in North America and are symbols of the
wide-open American West. Each chapter in the book was authored by
the world's leading experts on that topic. Both editors, James R.
Heffelfinger and Paul R. Krausman, are widely published in the
popular and scientific press and recipients of the O. C. Wallmo
Award, given every two years to a leading black-tailed and mule
deer expert who has made significant contributions to the
conservation of this species. In addition, Heffelfinger has chaired
the Mule Deer Working Group sponsored by the Western Association of
Fish and Wildlife Agencies for more than 15 years. This working
group consists of the leading black-tailed and mule deer experts
from each of 24 states, provinces, and territories in western North
America, putting them at the forefront of all conservation and much
of the research on this species. The book represents all current
knowledge available on these deer, including how changing
conditions such as fires, habitat alteration and loss, disease,
climate change, socio-economic forces, energy development, and
other aspects are influencing their distribution and abundance now
and into the future. It takes a completely fresh look at all
chapter topics. The revisions of distribution, taxonomy, evolution,
behavior, and new and exciting work being done in deer nutrition,
migration and movements, diseases, predation, and human dimensions
are all assembled in this volume. This book will instantly become
the foundation for the latest information and management strategies
to be implemented on the ground by practitioners and to inform the
public. Although this book is about deer, the topics discussed
influence most terrestrial wildlife worldwide and the basic
concepts in many of the chapters are applicable to other species.
