estrus and rut in deer is trigger by light, or more specifically a decrease in light signaled by the shortening days of autumn.

This whole article is a crock given that they are postulating that earlier greening, i.e. more food sooner is negatively affecting their fawn survival, while admitting that the actual population had consistent positive growth rates for the entire 27 years of the study.

But because the growth rate declined (while still remaining positive) 6% over that time it’s because of global warming. Not something more obvious like IDK, increased competition for food sources due to increased demand from the increased population.

The stupid agenda is strong in this one.

Sounds a lot like the polar bear studies...except that the bear studies also didn’t normalize for individual migrations and assumed that any they didn’t see again were dead.
