During the last month, the Millersville Mammalogy Class has been conducting remote camera surveys and spotlighting surveys for white-tailed deer and reporting the results to the Cross Gates Golf Course.  Results suggest that there are deer in the area (a herd of 7 deer were spotted), but deer are not occurring at any high densities.  Below are pictures of the different types of animals photographed during the remote camera survey effort.  Species include groundhog, red fox, Northern raccoon, Virginia opossum, American mink, wood duck and Northern flicker .
