Ortega et al. examine the movements of mule deer in western Wyoming, showing that individual deer compensated for phenological mismatches by accelerating or decelerating their movement. @wyo_migrations @migration_anna @wyokauffman nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Incredibly excited to share some recent work from @UWyoPiEE on migrating mule deer! This was a huge effort that required years of data and would not have been possible without all coauthors and collaborators from the @BLMNational and @WGFD! nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Our new film, A River Out of Time is now live. This film follows scientists, artists and tribal members as they embark on a 70- day, 1000 mile expedition down the Green and Colorado Rivers. Watch here: youtu.be/SlxCjwDRhGU #rafting #coriver #adventurefilm #documentary

Definitely excited to see this work published! My colleagues (Tayler LaSharr, Dr. Matthew Kauffman, Dr. Kevin Monteith) and I had a rare opportunity to analyze fat expenditure for mule deer from mid-autumn through late winter.

How do deer use precious fat reserves in winter? @ESAEcology's #TheScientificNaturalist discovers that mule deer mobilize fat reserves more slowly as winter progresses - which may help stave off starvation doi.org/10.1002/ecy.3952 #WinterEcology #NSFFunded @NSF @migration_anna
Rate of fat expenditure (kJ/day) for 17 adult female mule deer from November 2017–December 2017 and from December 2017–March 2018. Mule deer mobilized fat at a faster rate in mid-autumn (November–December) than late winter (December–March)

Anna Ortega published a paper in J Wildlife Management on using partial sedation to reduce stress during mule deer captures (w/ PiE students @TanaVerzuh, Tayler LaSharr; PiE alumni Ellen Aikens, Matt Hayes; PiE faculty @wyokauffman, Kevin Monteith) doi.org/10.1002/jwmg.21929
