Data was acquired during aerial surveys conducted by Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks (FWP) between 1991 and 2003. The aerial surveys were conducted annually to count and classify mule deer in the area. Data are used by Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks in their management responsibilities to set hunting seasons, determine population trends, and identify critical habitats. Observations were recorded on data forms and locations either plotted on USFS Maps (Deerlodge National Forest) or recorded by specific location. The data represents winter observations of mule deer. It is not intended to represent overall or annual distribution. Each individual observation represents one or more animals. Density of observations...

General and winter distribution of Mule Deer in Montana (USA).
This data set represents the 2010 mule deer huntarea and herdunit boundaries for Wyoming. The layer was originally digitized at a scale of 1:100,000, using USGS 1:100,000 DRGs as a backdrop for heads up digitizing. Updates are currently done by selecting needed features from other layers, including roads, streams, HUCs, etc. Huntarea boundary descriptions are part of hunting regulations, which are approved and published annually by the Wyoming Game and Fish Commission. When needed, the 2008 edition (First Edition) of the Wyoming Road and Recreation Atlas (Benchmark Maps) was consulted for road information.
This project improves the age class and diversity of plant communities. Improving transitional range will help hold the antelope and deer in this area, saving crucial winter areas for use later in the season. Other wildlife benefitting from this treatment are small mammals and a variety of birds, including sage grouse. Quality, quantity, and availability of forage in this transitional-migratory area will be improved. The units of accomplishments for this project, 10,000 acres (JM), are shared with multiple funding sources; due to the timing of the project; some units will carry over into FY 08. Some of the included acres are within the Wildland Urban Interface (JW).

Mule Deer Critical Winter Range is a delineation of those parts of Mule Deer Winter Range that CDOW considers to be of highest priority for protection from disturbance from development. Protection of these parts of Mule Deer Winter Range is considered critical to sustain mule deer populations across Colorado. Mule Deer Critical Winter Range was created by combining subsets of Mule Deer Winter Concentration Areas, high-density Mule Deer Severe Winter Range, and Deer Data Analysis Units (DAUs). The high density severe winter range was created by calculating the 2006 post-hunt population estimate divided by the total winter range for each DAU. This was used to map to identify a "higher" and "lower" density threshold....

Conversion of native winter range into producing gas fields can affect the habitat selection and distribution patterns of mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus). Understanding how levels of human activity influence mule deer is necessary to evaluate mitigation measures and reduce indirect habitat loss to mule deer on winter ranges with natural gas development. We examined how 3 types of well pads with varying levels of vehicle traffic influenced mule deer habitat selection in western Wyoming during the winters of 2005–2006 and 2006–2007. Well pad types included producing wells without a liquids gathering system (LGS), producing wells with a LGS, and well pads with active directional drilling. We used 36,699 Global Positioning...

Seasonal ranges include winter, crucial winter, crucial summer, and parturition areas. Data were obtained from state natural resource agencies (Colorado Parks and Wildlife) and the BLM.This dataset presents current and future change agent models and combined future potential for climate change (PFC). Potential for change (PFC) was determined by calculating the maximum potential for change among all change agents...

This dataset presents current and future change agent models and combined future potential for change (PFC) within Elk-mule deer assemblage potentially suitable habitat.The elk-mule deer assemblage potentially suitable habitat extent was determined using the SWReGAP Vertebrate Habitat Distribution Model for the mule deer clipped to the study area for the SLV-TP Landscape Assessment. The dataset includes only potentially suitable habitat and does not directly represent movement corridors or seasonal ranges.

The metrics used to assess the size of core habitat fragments was developed by considering the average home range for mule deer in the intermountain west. Habitat fragment size does not pertain to the minimum habitat area, but rather reflects landscape fragments that are easily traversed by mule deer as they move between patches of suitable habitat. Using the Habitat Core Area (HCA) toolset developed by WHCWG (2010), large, contiguous core habitat fragments were identified that presented no permeability restrictions and retained high levels of naturalness (i.e., core areas characterized by a relatively light human footprint). Habitat fragments larger than 500 ha were considered good, fragments between 300-500ha...
To support the BLM's San Luis Valley-Taos Plateau Landscape Assessment. This dataset presents current and future change agent models and combined future potential for change (PFC) within big game migration corridors.The big game migration corridors extent was determined from CDOW data. Species include bighorn sheep, elk, mule deer, and pronghorn. Migration corridors were clipped to the study area boundary and merged and dissolved across species.This dataset presents current and future change agent models and combined future potential for change (PFC). Potential for change (PFC) was determined by calculating the maximum potential for change among all change agents within each 1 km reporting unit. Current and future...
A total of 200 soil samples were collected in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem in Grand Teton National Park and the National Elk Refuge in July 2019 for chronic wasting disease (CWD) monitoring purposes. To collect samples from locations where ungulates are most likely to be shedding or encountering CWD, we targeted elk collar data locations, known migration routes of mule deer and elk, and areas where yearly elk supplemental feeding generally occurs on the National Elk Refuge. We sampled 10 transects in Grand Teton National Park and 10 transects in the National Elk Refuge, each 1,000 meters in length. We collected soil samples every 100 meters along the transect for a total of 10 samples per transect. Terra Core...

This data product contains estimates of habitat quality and connectivity for mountain lion, mule deer, desert bighorn sheep, and black bear, and combined estimates of high habitat and connectivity areas for all species. The analysis area was a 236,000 square kilometers that encompassed the Navajo Nation, which includes portions of Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah. The estimates of habitat quality were created with spatially explicit habitat variables and either an expert-based linear combination process (for mountain lion and mule deer) or a generalized linear mixed model-based estimation that used radio-collar telemetry data (for desert bighorn sheep, black bear, and pronghorn; collected between 2005-2011). Habitat...

This dataset represents MULE DEER use areas in Utah as determined by wildlife biologists during 2001. It was updated in the southwestern part of Utah during the spring of 2004. Additional updates were made in October and November 2004. In May 2006 the dataset was converted from a Critical, High, Substantial and Limited value system to a Crucial/Substantial value system. The southeastern portion of the state was again updated in August 2007.
Records of mule deer found dead or live captured on the northern Yellowstone winter range, 1993-1997
The data detail the live captures and radio-collaring of female mule deer on the northern Yellowstone winter range - 60 in 1993 and 25 in 1995 - and details of the known deaths of these deer. It also includes records of mule deer of both sexes found dead in the course of field work between 1993 and 1997.
This map shows the potential current distribution of mule deer, in the context of current and near-term terrestrial intactness and long-term potential for climate change and energy development.

Habitat fragmentation was assessed by using the core habitat developed for the core habitat patchsize analysis for both summer and winter ranges. Each dataset was evaluated by applying the following patch density equation to assess the level of habitat heterogeneity: PD = N/ A, where PD = Patch Density, N = number of unique patches, and A = unit area (100 ha). Based on the output of this equation values calculated between 0.4 -0.55 were scored as good, values between 0 and 0.4 were scored as fair, and values greater than 0.55 were scored as poor.
