PREPARER'S COMMENTS 



Most of our information about this deer is 

 from studies made on the Columbia River herd. 

 Since the Roseburg herd occupies different habi- 

 tat, generalization about the biology and manage- 

 ment of this deer should be extrapolated to the 

 Roseburg herd with caution.
