Sandhill Whitetails: Providing New Perspective for Deer Management

Wisconsin's Sandhill Wildlife Area - a 9,150-acre tract enclosed by a nine-foot high wire fence- is about as close as you can come to "test tube" deer management. Since the early 1960s, wildlife biologists have been manipulating deer populations at Sandhill through a variety of hunting strategies, studying the outcomes, and applying the resulting theories to the management of deer herds across Wisconsin. A cornerstone of our deer management program, the ecological and sociological research completed at Sandhill has influenced deer management throughout North America.

Now, this research has been pulled together, synthesized, and summarized in a single reference, the 282-page book Sandhill Whitetails: Providing New Perspective for Deer Management. Whether you're a college professor, student, hunter, or just a fan of Wisconsin's whitetail deer, you'll find something interesting in this book!
