Researchers studied deer-vehicle collisions to understand population phenomena

Caption

Dan Reuman and colleagues at the University of Kansas have written a new study in the peer-reviewed journal Ecology Letters. By parsing data on weather, deer populations and deer-vehicle collisions in Wisconsin, the investigators show spatial synchrony could be driving population cycles, rather than the reverse.
