Deer wintering habitat and wetland protection in Maine: spatial intersection of mapped resources

Article Abstract:

Research shows that the deer wintering regions in Maine should be protected and considered as habitats separate from wetlands, in spite of a slight overlap of the two regions. Many types of wetlands would be protected due to the protection of deer wintering area, as these areas are a part of coniferous lowland forests.
