Mule Deer Monitoring Project provides valuable information on winter mortality and movement
 CHEYENNE ? A five-year, groundbreaking project by the Wyoming Game and Fish Department to study mule deer in the Cowboy State is underway. This project, which started in late 2022, takes a deeper data dive by researching six areas considered critical for mule deer management: abundance, composition, data management, survival, herd health and harvest management. One of the primary research questions the project hopes to address is abundance ? how many individual mule deer are in each of the state?s herds.
