浏览的原因，树皮剥离，磨损损坏的鹿审查现有的文献。树种的脆弱性各不相同，每种形式的损害都发生在一定的年龄和大小类别内。茎形态对树皮剥离有重要影响;在任何一个物种中，下部分枝和树皮增厚往往会阻止剥离。与场地有关的因素，如隐蔽物、雪和土壤肥力也会影响损害。有关鹿的人口密度损害的数据是不精确的，有必要改进密度估计方法，以证明在不同的栖息地扑杀的好处。植被会影响鹿的栖息地和饮食选择，并与损害产生积极和消极的关系。 提出了计算机模型，以帮助损害预测和森林保护决策。
The causes of browsing, bark stripping, and fraying damage by deer are examined by reviewing the available literature. Trees species differ in vulnerability and each form of damage occurs within certain age and size classes. Stem morphology has an important influence on bark stripping; lower branches and bark thickening tend to deter stripping in any one species. Site related factors such as hiding cover, snow and soil fertility also influence damage. The data relating deer population density to damage are imprecise and there is a need for improved density estimation methods to demonstrate the benefit of culling in different habitats. Vegetation affects both habitat and diet selection in deer, and can create both positive and negative relationships with damage. Computer models are proposed as an aid to damage prediction and forest protection decision making.
