CARRYING CAPACITY FOR WHITE TAILED DEER IN TEPALCINGO, MORELOS

Allometric scaling of rumen–reticulum capacity in white-tailed deer

Scaling of gut capacity with body weight is part of a hypothesis explaining digestive efficiency across the spectrum of body sizes in ruminant species. Larger animals should retain digesta longer because of gut capacity relative to metabolic demands. Interspecific variation in digestive efficiency is an integral part of the Bell–Jarman principle, which is used to explain interspecific resource ...

lmmunocontraception in White-Tailed Deer

lmmunocontraception may have management application for white-tailed deer populations in parks and preserves. where hunting 1s illegal or impractical. This study examines physiological aspects of immunocontraception with porcine zonae pellucidae in 53 fertile white-tailed does. In separate studies, we employed protocols of three and two porcine zona pellucida (PZP) injections as well as two dif...
