The latest updates to the Southwest Wisconsin CWD, Deer and Predator Study

Issue #8  

In this issue of Field Notes, we discuss the observed causes of death in our collared deer and the status of the herd as it pertains to survivorship over the last year. We cover the latest updates in our predator study, including annual survivorship, home ranges, tracking effort and next steps. We are also pleased to introduce you to a pair of award-winning staff members whose tireless efforts have been invaluable in shaping and advancing this project. Lastly, fawning season is nigh, so be sure to stay tuned this April for details on how to sign up and participate as a volunteer.
