Why the current strategy to manage mule deer populations may not be working

Following a surge of interest in deer hunting beginning in the '80s and '90s, strategies to manage deer populations evolved to increase the proportion of mature male deer. While the increase in male abundance has perhaps made for better hunting conditions, the overall mule deer population in western North America has continued to decline. New BYU research appears to have figured out at least one potential reason why.
