Western yellow pine seedling killed by repeated browsings of mule deer. Yosemite, March 30, 1930. Wildlife Divi- sion No. 566. METHODS USED IN THIS STUDY In my study of mule deer in California, it soon became apparent that one of the critical factors which called for close observa- tion and attention was that of their food habits and food preferences. Hunters, ranchers and stockmen, as w^ll as naturalists, have given accounts of the food habits of deer at different localities and diff'erent seasons. Some observers have even gone so far as to state that deer never eat this or that plant, that grass is "seldom touched," and have made various other statements which need verification. In my study of the mule deer in California, I have purposely selected certain typical regions and have made detailed observations on the food preferences of deer in Modoc, Lassen, Plumas, Mariposa, Fresno and San Diego Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original California.
