Much of the Wyoming rangeland could soon be inhospitable to deer, according to new research from ecologists at the University of Wyoming. The culprit: an invasive Eurasian prairie grass species called cheatgrass. The fast-growing, ever-thirsty species poses multiple problems for deer. Not only does it provide extremely low nutritional value, but it also siphons water away from native rangeland grasses, changing the composition of the prairies and pushing deer off their preferred habitat.The study, published in the Rangeland Ecology & Management journal, found that mule deer increasingly avoid rangelands as the density of cheatgrass increases above 10 to 14%. Once…
