Summary

According to some, we have 31 species of deer to chase in North America. Is that true? Mark Boardman joins Arizona Game and Fish Wildlife Biologist Jim Heffelfinger to find out. Jim is a passionate deer expert, has written books on deer, coauthored books on deer, runs the website deernut.com, can be found on Instagram as @cervidnut, and is a full research scientist at the University of Arizona’s School of Natural Resources and the Environment. Not surprising of anyone who loves deer this much, he’s a deer hunter too. Tune in for a fun and informative conversation with our deer friend Jim all about deer.
