This document summarizes a study on white-tailed deer populations at The Wilds conservation center from 2008-2014. Data was collected along 5 transects by counting deer observed once a week. On average, surveys found 40.5 total deer per transect, with 35.1 does and 5.4 bucks. Linear regression analysis found a positive association between deer numbers and time. The deer density was calculated to be 49.012 deer/km2, above the 25 deer/km2 threshold. This high density could impact habitat and increase disease spread. The ongoing study is being conducted by Dr. Ingold, Dr. Dooley, Dan Beetem, The Wilds, and Josh Goedel.
