Understanding White-tailed Deer: Florida and the Southeast

Graceful, fleet-footed, and majestic, the white-tailed deer is a distinctive part of the American landscape and a longtime favorite of wildlife enthusiasts and sportsmen. Despite being one of the most written-about wildlife species globally, there has been little information available about deer in Florida, where whitetail habitat needs are unique. "Understanding White-tailed Deer" offers an informative and beautifully illustrated look at whitetails in our region—their biology, ecology, and the management decisions necessary to maintain healthy and abundant populations. Landowners, land managers, hunters, and naturalists will find in this book a better understanding of the issues involved in the management and continued success of this magnificent species. 231 pp.
