Mule Deer Migration Corridors, Pacific Herd - 2015-2020 [ds3142]

Migration corridor, stopover, and winter range locations for mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) developed by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) for the Pacific herd in El Dorado and Placer counties, California. Corridors, stopovers, and winter ranges were developed in Migration Mapper with Brownian Bridge Movement Models using GPS locations from collared deer. Migration corridors represent movement routes used by deer between winter and summer range habitats. Moderate and high use corridors were used by greater than or equal to 10 percent and greater than or equal to 20 percent of the animals sampled, respectively. Migration stopovers and winter range polygons also represent high use areas.
