The overall goal of this experimental design is to assist whether population level genetics restrict white-tailed deer, odocoileus virginianus antler and body size by controlling for other variables that also influence antler and body size such as

This protocol describes how we designed a controlled study where nutritional variation was eliminated. We found that phenotypic variation of male white-tailed deer was more limited by nutrition than genetics.
