Growing human populations have led to increased urban development. Many communities retain sufficient natural resources to allow deer populations to flourish. As a result, residents frequently interact with deer. While some deer-human interactions are positive, many interactions are negative which can lead residents to ask wildlife managers for assistance. Wildlife management agencies approach community deer management differently throughout the U.S., and new methods are needed to better address residents’ concerns about deer. Our research aimed to identify deer management techniques (e.g., hunting, repellents) that suburban and semi-rural residents were willing to adopt. Additionally, we developed a framework based on structured decision making that may be easily applied by wildlife managers to help communities develop deer management plans.
