A Scientific Approach to Deer Movement w/ Dr. Duane Diefenbach

Hey everyone, welcome to episode 175 of the Antler Up Podcast!On this week's episode I was joined by Penn State Adjunct Professor of Wildlife Ecology Leader, PA Cooperative Fish & Wildlife Research Unit Dr. Duane Diefenbach.  This was a great conversation with Duane about some of his findings on the Deer-Forest Study related to deer movement.  We get into a variety of other topics associated with his findings over the years researching whitetails.  Kicking this episode off, Duane discusses where the study is currently at and where it is heading.  This study originated 10 years ago and has a few more until they are finished with it.  It was interesting to hear Duane share how it has evolved over the years with technology that has helped them a ton with their findings and understandings.  Duane answers listener questions and elaborates on some myths whitetail hunters either swear by or not. Duane dives into some of the major factors that cause deer movement and the burning question of where deer go when the pressure rises. So tune in to hear what Duane and his team have found over the last decade in the Deer-Forest Study and what Duane has observed since the early 2000’s researching whitetails.  Check it out and let us know what you think!  Enjoy this fun episode and see you next week! Thanks again for all the support and best of luck out there and Antler Up!Check out the Sportsmen's Empire Podcast Network for more relevant, outdoor content!
