Abstract

During the summer of 1955 observations and records were made of the grazing habits and daily activities of cattle, sheep, goats and white-tailed deer (Odoco&us virginiawus temnus) on experimental pastures of the Kerr Wildlife Management, Area in west-central Kerr County, Texas. This study was a part of a long-time project dealing with livestock-deer interactions initiated by the Texas Game and Fish Commission in cooperation with the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station. Previous studies on livestock or deer activities in Texas were made by Cory (1927), Buechner (1944) and Davis (1952). Bange cattle activities have been studied in Arizona by Culley (1938)) in Kansas by Moorfleld and Hopkins (1951)) in New Mexico by Kilpatrick (1955) and in Montana by Peterson and Woolfolk (1955). The latter study included a review of the literature dealing with the activities of range animals.
