| description | The sustainable use of white-tailed deer in Mexico can only be performed in Management Units for the Conservation of
Wildlife (UMA , for its acronym in Spanish) , based on a management plan for legal operation. Among the methods for
population estimate harvest rates, highlights fecal count groups, depending on the frequency at which a deer excretes daily, and whose values are estimated from captive specimens and tolerant observer, but considering subspecies and different from the northern Sinaloa conditions. Using these rates of defecation can lead to overharvesting. This research was conducted in the farmed deer of the indigenous ejido (Mayo-Yoreme ethnic group) called “Los Capomos”, in the municipality of El Fuerte, Sinaloa, between October 2011 and May 2012, to estimate the rate of defecation counts from fecal groups, obtained from a confined deer population and in apparent equilibrium with its environment through
adjustments to the model of Eberhardt and Van Etten. It was found that the lowest rate published defecation (12.7 deer
fecal groups per day), the estimated population accounted for half of the known population, which would prevent excessive use of native deer in the wild. However, the pattern of random grouping of excreta in confinement, makes it advisable that it be used in conditions of freedom, since it presupposes the mathematical model used aggregate grouping patterns. |
