So some are now proposing that a closer b/d ratio and less DPSM is a health risk for deer?
Interesting way of presenting your thoughts. I'm not sure you understand, so I guess I will try to put it in simpler terms.....

The stats show that breeding rates and herd health have declined. That means, that does are not being bred in a shorter time frame as was anticipated, and doe health is falling along with embryo numbers. Is it due to closer B/D ratio or less DPSM? Is it?
Once again you ignored the question so I'll ask it another way.

Please show us where any wildlife professional concluded that doe health is "falling" or that the minor fluctuation in embryos per fawn is anything more than simply small annual variations.
