Body

Potential economic return from deer was greater than that from livestock under conditions of average prevailing prices and adequate deer harvest. Data computed from rancher surveys indicated that the deer herd was maintained as a liability to the ranchers collectively, primarily because of inadequate harvest. This material was digitized as part of a cooperative project between the Society for Range Management and the University of Arizona Libraries.
