Abstract
Rocky Mountain mule deer (Odocoileus hemionius hemionius) on the National Bison Range, Moiese, Montana were shot at monthly intervals as part of another study. It was felt desirable to collect blood and pH data when possible from a wild ruminant in this refuge area. Very little is known about blood values, the pH of the gastro-intestinal tract, and other vital physiological data about our native big game. This investigation was made possible through the cooperation of the Fish and Wildlife Service, the Montana Fish and Game Department, and the Montana Cooperative Wildlife Research Unit.Keywords
