That's good info......I wish they would have came up with a better way of describing that one other than "deer take short vacations".....That'll end up misleading some folks. They went on to say that there was no way to predict when and how far......What it probably should have said is something like.... "We can only track the deer and know what he alone is doing....we don't have the ability to see everything that may be occurring around him....There are too many unknown variables to be able to say why they leave their home range in these instances"...….What they damn sure aint doing is "going on vacation"

Another option may be a seasonal food source that is only available in certain locations for a limited time.....fruit for example.....
