It would depend on the size of the exclosure.While I agree that exclosures only tell you what happens at a 0 deer density,it does show that deer are the biggest variable underthose conditions.

There's no doubt in my mind that overbrowsed habitat can support more than 21 dpfsm.We've been doing for years so it must be possible.That still doesn't mean the habitat isideal for other animals or that the deer are as healthy as they could be.This definately has alot to do with protecting the future of commercially valuable timer.Why wouldn't we want to do that?
