<p class="MsoNormal">Greetings,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’ve been working on statistical population reconstruction for black-tailed deer in western Washington where we do not have good information on age at harvest. I have written a report describing efforts to date, which is attached.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I would be most interested in receiving any comments, criticism, suggestions, or other reactions on this.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Sample .tpl and .dat files are included in the report. I have also attached the .tpl and .dat files for the single sex – single weapon simplified model (described in the report) for your reference if desired.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
