The wolf impact on mule deer is benefiting us as theyre reducing motor vehicle collisions... Ha, can't say I've heard that one yet. Especially as the state, feds, Colville tribes, MDF and others are working to reduce those collisions through much more reasonable means in places like Highway 97: https://youtu.be/sQhEmdkQ-hcLoss of winter range due to development, agriculture and recent severe fires, and fragmentation of migration corridors leading to that winter range, seem to be the largest issues facing our mule deer. Hopefully studies like this provide some solid tools for managers to incorporate additional impacts from increased predation, too.
How is survival on those high ridges right now, mulies do not hibernate very will

The wolf impact on mule deer is benefiting us as theyre reducing motor vehicle collisions... I quickly picked up on the same sentence!Sadly the mule deer that will remain will be those that live where wolves don't go to hunt, the rest of the countryside will be mostly lacking of mule deer, except for the ones that survive in the most rugged country or within close proximity of dense human population in and around towns.
