The movements, habitat use, and activity patterns of black-tailed deer in western Oregon, and the influence of suburban housing developments on the behavior of deer in the area, were studied and described. Radio telemetry, spotlight censusing, and a resident questionnaire were used to document the behavior of deer. Radio telemetry...
A study conducted May 1978-December 1980 determined that the present geographic range of Columbian white-tailed deer, Odocoileus virginianus leucurus, (CWTD) in Douglas County, Oregon encompassed 1199km2. The area was predominately a Quercus woodland community, typical of the Interior Valley Zone of western Oregon. The CWTD distribution

to host exotic chewing lice (Damalinia (Cervicola) sp.) believed to cause deer hair
loss syndrome in Columbian black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus),

reproductive strategies; females select habitat and behave
in manners primarily designed to promote...
