Description

Presents the results of an aerial survey of deer and elk in Wildlife Management Unit 108 in February 2018. Aerial surveys are the primary method used to assess the population size, distribution, population trends and herd composition of ungulates in Alberta. This information supports the effective management and conservation of ungulates, and is used to set hunting licence allocations, identify areas with agricultural depredation problems, and determine priority areas for recovery actions.

Description

The primary objectives were to 1) describe the occurrence of CWD in wild deer in Alberta (raw data and weighted surveillance measures), 2) compare disease occurrence in hunter-harvest and disease control data, 3) evaluate the sensitivity of the surveillance data to detect CWD occurrence, 4) assess validity of possible geographic spread and/or numerical increase of CWD in Alberta, 5) assess spatial variation in CWD risk, 6) predict future spread, and 7) develop a sampling approach to assess occurrence of CWD in northern, western, or central Alberta.

Description

The North Border Deer Study was a 4-year collaborative research project between Alberta Fish and Wildlife and the University of Alberta conducted from January 2006 to April 2010. The study focused on the ecology and management of mule deer and white tailed deer in a CWD-infected region of east-central Alberta. Results of these field studies are expected to provide the basis for further modeling of CWD disease dynamics and spread as well as assist management over the next decade.
