- Abstract
The article presents a study which examines the migratory routes that include stopover sites and movement corridors of migratory mule deer applying the Brownian bridge movement model (BBMM) in Wyoming. It shows that the migratory routes of mule deer have series of stopover sites wherein the animals spent most of their time and are connected to movement corridors. It suggests that management strategies which can distinguish between movement corridors and stopover sites must be justified.
