Transmission of the chewing louse, Damalinia (Cervicola) sp., from Columbian black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) to Rocky Mountain mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus hemionus) and its role in deer hair-loss syndrome.

Creator:: Robison, Jason A.
Abstract:: The potential for Rocky Mountain mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus hemionus) to host exotic chewing lice (Damalinia (Cervicola) sp.) believed to cause deer hair loss syndrome in Columbian black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus), was investigated in captive deer held in pens at E.E. Wilson Wildlife Area, Corvallis, Oregon from March 2004...

Status and habitat use of Columbian white-tailed deer in Douglas County, Oregon

Creator:: Smith, Winston Paul
Abstract:: 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 was not contiguous throughout...

The use of suburban habitats by Columbian black-tailed deer

Creator:: Happe, Patricia Jenkin
Abstract:: 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...

Pellet counts as a census and range-use technique for Columbia black-tailed deer

Creator:: Meehan, James Morgan
Abstract:: Rates of defecation of black-tailed deer in the Tillamook Burn of western Oregon were estimated using counts of groups of fecal pellets in 1959 and 1960. A 340-acre enclosure was divided into eight range types on the basis of depth of soil, aspect, and elevation. The estimated rates of defecation...

Movements, habitat associations, and survival of Columbian white-tailed deer in western Oregon

Creator:: Ricca, Mark A.
Abstract:: Columbian white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus leucurus, CWTD) are a geographically isolated and federally endangered sub-species for which there is a paucity of recent ecological information. I described and examined sources of variation in spatial use patterns (i.e. home range, areas of concentrated use, and movements), habitat associations, and survival for...

Ecological relationships between Columbian white-tailed and black-tailed deer in southwest Oregon

Creator:: Whitney, Lowell W.
Abstract:: I examined ecological relationships and mechanisms of coexistence for sympatric populations of Columbian white-tailed (Odocoileus virginianus leucurus) and black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) in Douglas County, Oregon, from September 1997 to August 1998. Horseback transects were used to describe spatial distributions, population overlap, and habitat use for both species. Behavioral...

Advantages of habitat selection and sexual segregation in mule and white-tailed deer

Creator:: Main, Martin Benjamin
Abstract:: I studied sexual segregation in mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) and white-tailed deer (Q. virginianus) in different environments and at different population densities to test the hypothesis that sexual segregation occurs in ungulates as the result of different reproductive strategies; females select habitat and behave in manners primarily designed to promote...

Ecology of Columbian black-tailed deer fawns in western Oregon

Creator:: Pamplin, Nathan P.
Abstract:: Little is known about Columbian black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) because of their elusive nature and the logistical difficulty of studying them in densely forested and mountainous terrain. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife has identified fawn survival as an important gap in the current knowledge of demography and...

Factors affecting habitat use by black-tailed deer and Roosevelt elk in the Silver Burn, Southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Michalski, Bret L.
Abstract:: A wildfire burned over 40,000 ha of conifer and mixed conifer-hardwood forest in the Silver Creek drainage of southwestern Oregon in the fall of 1987 allowing me to assess big game use of a large natural burn. I used fecal pellet group counts to estimate habitat use and effects of...

Ungulate activity classification : calibrating activity monitor GPS collars for Rocky Mountain elk, mule deer, and cattle

Creator:: Gaylord, Adam J.
Abstract:: Ungulate behavior has been studied extensively but direct observation of free-ranging animals over long periods of time and large geographic areas is often prohibitively difficult. Improved technology, such as GPS collars fitted with motion-sensitive activity monitors, provides researchers with a potential tool to remotely collect fine scale activity and location...
