Home range size varies so much by individual the only way to know is by placing a GPS collar on one.
It’s also the reason I keep saying that bait, cameras and long seasons are NOT going to work long term in some areas. If you have a buck on camera there’s a guarantee that 10 other ppl do too and somebody is out to kill him and they will. It IS impacting age structure in some places to the point that mature bucks are no longer making up any measurable percentage of the population, which is terrible deer management on a population level.
If you're gonna get on a tear again about how cell cams shouldnt be legal, then I expect you to never use the FIRST cell cam to help a client better manage a deer herd.
There aint a bit of difference in what I am doing getting pics of deer that I can decide whether to shoot or not and you using them to assess a herd
If a client who is paying you to help manage their herd shows you a single pic from a cell cam and offers to pay you for your opinion your answer better be "Nah I dont think those cams should be legal so please dont pay me to answer questions about deer you got pics of using a cell cam"
OR
Stop telling everyone they shouldnt be legal
