Looking for U.S. government information and services. Portions of the Kaibab North herd in Arizona and the Paunsaugunt Plateau herd in Utah share a common winter range along the Arizona and Utah border. However, the story disappeared from texts in the late 20th century after several papers noted uncertainties in . These convergent lines of evidence support the idea of extreme deer herbivory in the 1920s, consistent with food limitation of deer at high populations (bottom-up control) and predation limitation at low deer populations (top-down control).

They are the densest population of mule deer in Arizona, with an estimate of 10,200 individuals in 2019. Excel data analysis and solver was used to create the data for the graph. Over the last decade, many new tracking studies have been conducted on migratory herds, and analytical methods have been developed that allow for population-level corridors and stopovers to be mapped and prioritized. As a result, the deer population was well below its carrying capacity of 30,000. Why do you think the deer population size in 1900 was 4,000 when it is Because these corridors traverse vast landscapes (i.e., up to 150 miles), they are increasingly threatened by roads, fencing, subdivisions and other development. Water availability throughout seasonal ranges may be the limiting factor for this population.

We re-examined the case study by determining the age structure of aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) Their summer range consists of habitat dominated by ponderosa pine, mixed conifer, and aspen. By, then, the girdling of so much of the vegetation through browsing precluded recovery of the food reserve to such an, extent that subsequent die-off and reduced natality yielded a population about half that which could theoretically, have been previously maintained. Other periods of unusual numbers of aspen included high numbers of aspen dating to the 1880s and 1890s (when regular surface fires ceased), few aspen dating from 1953 to 1962 (after a second irruption of the deer population), and very high numbers from 1968 to 1992 (coincident with widespread logging). Water availability throughout seasonal ranges may be the limiting factor for this population. The deer population experienced a great increase in numbers during the early decades of the 20th century. Hunters were able to kill only a small fraction of the starving deer. abstract = "In ecology textbooks prior to the 1970s, Aldo Leopold's classic story of predator control, overpopulation of deer, and habitat degradation on the Kaibab Plateau during the 1920s epitomized predator regulation of herbivore populations.
