Estimates of mean dates of parturition for a study population of female mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) during 2023 in Utah, USA. Dates of parturition are estimated using six different methods, the analysis of parturition indicators (API), the behavioral change point analysis (BCPA), the individual based method (IBM), the Peterson method, the population based method (PBM), and the rolling minimum convex polygons method (rMCP). The dotted line indicates the true mean date of parturition for the population, and error bars indicate the standard error of the mean for each estimate
