MIGRATION TRACKING WEEK 7: Del Arrives on Summer Range, Births Twins! 🦌 🦌 

After a long journey of 140 miles lasting 28 days, Del the mule deer arrived on summer range in the Hoback Basin on June 4, 2021. When we began this series, we chose to name her Del after her summer range, a tributary of the Hoback and Snake River known as Dell Creek. This is where her twins were born sometime around June 9th, that you can see in the video.

From the moment Del’s fawns are born, she is in a frenzy of alertness, feeding, and nursing. She’s doing everything she can to maximize her foraging, to sustain her offspring and put on the pounds she needs to survive the coming winter. 

All this drama of birth and the first weeks of life plays out on a forested ridge in the headwaters of Dell Creek, a few miles above the cattle pastures of @littlejennieranch. If you were with Del, your view would take in piney ridges and small meadows, with the rugged limestone uplift of 11,380-foot Tosi Peak standing above timberline about three miles away.

As we mentioned at the outset, this Del tracking series is a one-time event for this particular deer because her collar dropped off. Thank you all for following along and sharing this migration story, and thanks to Del and her fawns for giving us a view into their world. We’ll have more migration tracking in the future, but for now, so long Del.

Recovering America’s Wildlife Act Passes! MDF Recovering America’s Wildlife Act Passes! 

 MDF President/CEO Joel Pedersen:
“Securing increased funding for state fish and wildlife conservation efforts has been a top priority for the conservation community for decades, and the Mule Deer Foundation is proud to be part of the coalition of thousands of organizations supporting the Recovering America’s Wildlife Act. Today’s vote by the U.S. House of Representatives to pass RAWA is a critical step toward finally enacting dedicated funding to help proactively address the conservation needs of our nation’s wildlife species. We know that the increased investment in wildlife conservation will help to ensure that declining species are addressed well before they need to be listed as threatened or endangered. In addition, funding will be available for improving conservation education and recreational access to actively engage all Americans in the outdoors.
Mule deer and black-tailed deer have been identified by most western states as species of greatest conservation need within their State Wildlife Action Plan. MDF has worked closely with our state agency partners on habitat conservation and restoration that will benefit deer and the hundreds of other species that also utilize these habitats. The increase in funding through RAWA will go a long way to addressing these and the many other conservation needs across the country.

MDF thanks the congressional champion of this legislation, Representative Debbie Dingell (D-MI), for her leadership on this bill and calls on the U.S. Senate to take up their version of the bill, S. 2372, and enact this legislation this year.”

The Mule Deer Foundation needs your help to pass the bipartisan Recovering America’s Wildlife Act, scheduled for a vote this week in the U.S. House of Representatives. MDF is part of a broad coalition  of organizations, businesses, state fish and wildlife agencies, and tribal nations that collectively represent millions of Americans—these groups are unified in support of the Recovering America’s Wildlife Act. 

MDF is calling for all members, and those that support wild lands and wildlife to contact your Representative in the House immediately and ask for a YES vote on this critical piece of conservation legislation.
The Recovering America’s Wildlife Act would dedicate $1.3 billion to state agencies and $97.5 million to Tribal Nations to recover and sustain healthy fish and wildlife populations. This significant investment would benefit the more than 12,000 species of greatest conservation need identified in state wildlife action plans—including mule deer. Funding will be used to implement on-the-ground efforts such as land conservation, habitat restoration, fighting invasive species, reintroducing native species, tackling emerging wildlife diseases, and increasing conservation education and outdoor recreation. 

Please contact your Representative now and ask them to VOTE YES for Recovering America’s Wildlife Act!
