Alfonso Ortega-S.OCOs "White-Tailed Deer Habitat: Ecology and Management on Rangelands" was hailed as OC a splendid reference for the classroom and those who make their living from wildlife and the landOCO and as OC filling a niche that is not currently approached in the literature.OCOIn this second, full-color edition, revised and expanded to include the entire western United States and northern Mexico, Fulbright and Ortega-S. provide a carefully reasoned synthesis of ecological and range management principles that incorporates rangeland vegetation management and the impact of crops, livestock, predation, and population density within the context of the arid and semiarid habitats of this broad region.
