Since it is a rather long article it might work better if we discuss specific topics covered in the article. In light of RSBs claims that the herd habitat is controlling the herd in 2G ,I found this quote particularly interesting.
Subsequent studies have confirmed such localized deer removal might drastically reduce deer numbers in highly fragmented habitat as occurs in residential areas. Likewise, investigators believe such a surgical approach might be feasible in the central Adirondacks.
Logically, unintentional overharvesting of white-tailed does might produce similar results and, due to social disruption, cause unfavorably low deer numbers in local areas for a relatively long time. Likewise, excessive natural deer mortality, for whatever reason, in any given area, could theoretically produce similar localized consequences.
