Survival models using Program MARK for fawn mule deer from birth to 30 days using known-age newborn fawns and ages estimated from published neonatal-age models based on new-hoof growth, California, USA, 2005–2007.

Models compared and contrasted survival rates among groups and time-dependency.
aKA = known-age newborn, R = Robinette [21], and H = Haskell [17] neonatal-age model.
bTemporal scale represents constant, daily, or weekly survival among intervals.
cAkaike's Information Criterion corrected for small sample size [55].
dDifference in the AICc value of the top-ranked model and that of the model under consideration.
eAkaike weight [55].
fNumber of parameters.
