"An Evaluation of Deer Management
Options" was collectively developed by the New England Chapter of The
Wildlife Society and the Northeast Deer Technical Committee. It was created
in 1988 and was revised in 2007 by the Northeast Deer Technical Committee*
to include the latest information on the available deer management options.
This document
should serve as a valuable resource to anyone interested in deer
management. Homeowners, landowners, property managers, and Natural
Resources professionals should find it an invaluable tool for deer
management decision-making.
The facts
contained in this document provide the information necessary to make an
informed decision on which deer management option is best suited to the
needs of the public and the needs of our natural resources.
*The Northeast Deer Technical Committee is a group of
professional deer biologists spanning from Maryland to Maine and several
eastern Canada Provinces. The Committee is committed to the study and wise
management of the white-tailed deer resource.
