Mule Deer 2962-33
Adult buck - Upper Shoshone herd unit
Jackson
Among all the focal herd mule deer, this adult buck made one
of the most stunning migrations. He started his spring migration
May 22 at Buffalo Bill Reservoir and traveled 82 miles before
he ended his journey June 17 near Jackson Lake in Grand Teton
National Park. He crossed rugged and unforgiving terrain amidst
a full complement of natural predators and across multiple land
jurisdictions. The combined elevation gained and lost during this
migration was 34,426 feet.

Mule Deer 2899
Adult doe - Wyoming Range herd unit
Captured on winter range Dec. 14, 2022, in the hills southeast of Afton. Unlike many of
her counterparts that traveled long distances for the summer, she migrated around 5
miles to her summer range. This shows that short, medium and long-distance migrants
often exist within the same herd. Multiple movement strategies can be important within
a herd and may provide populations with a better chance of long-term persistence
amidst highly variable weather conditions.
