What's New With the ADMB?
- Spotlight: Mule Deer Migration
April 22, 2014---Researchers have only recently found the
longest large mammal migration in the continental United States:
Mule deer migrate 150 miles (241 kilometers) in western
Wyoming each year. And it's no easy task for them--barriers
include highways, fences, tough terrain, and bodies of water. In
this video by Joe Riis, a National Geographic grantee and
regular contributor,
see the modern-day
obstacles mule deer overcome to make the migratory trek that
they likely have been making for generations.
