We studied dietary overlap between captive white-tailed deer (n = 3) (Odocotleus tir@nlanus) and cattle (n = 4) for 3 years on 2 rotationally burned, 54-ha longleaf pine (Pinus paZustris)-bluestem (Andropogon spp.) pastures in central Louisiana. A third of each pasture was burned each year in late February. One pasture was grazed heavily (61-77% herbage use) yearlong; the other was grazed heavi...
